In this episode of the Dead America Podcast, host Ed Watters
engages with Wanda Webster and Christopher Mack, authors of 'The Journey
Within' and 'Isabella's Starry Night'. The conversation delves into the
profound impact of education and introspection in overcoming addiction and
trauma. Wanda shares her journey from being an education specialist to
understanding the intrinsic link between trauma and addiction, while
Christopher recounts his transformation from a life enmeshed in drug culture to
finding spiritual growth and balance. Together, they explore the Dynamics of
Recovery, a program they developed to foster growth and healing through
principles borrowed from AA and Carl Jung's psychological theories. This
enlightening discussion sheds light on the importance of honesty, unconditional
love, and the power of introspection in personal recovery journeys.
