95: Addiction, Identity, and the Illusion of Brokenness: Jason Shiers on Childhood Trauma, Secret Shame in Recovery, and What Real Healing Looks Like
Description
In today’s powerful conversation, I welcome psychotherapist and Infinite Recovery Project founder Jason Shiers. Jason shares his deeply personal story of addiction, trauma, and his 20+ year journey through recovery — before a radical spiritual awakening changed everything.
Together, Jason and I dive into:
- Why trauma is often the hidden root of addiction.
- How traditional recovery models pathologize normal human responses.
- What it really means to heal — beyond symptom management.
- The transformational power of somatic work, parts work (IFS), and embodied spirituality.
- How authentic relationships become the ultimate container for healing.
Jason also explores how to reconnect with your true Self, why you are not broken, and why genuine freedom from addiction comes from a profound internal shift — not just managing behaviors.
