Ep 67: Sasha Tozzi on Self-Esteem, Sex and Sobriety

Sasha Tozzi on Self-Esteem, Sex and Sobriety Welcome to Episode # 67 of The Alcohol & Addiction Podcast and my guest Sasha Tozzi. Sasha is a writer and lifestyle & recovery coach who helps people break their addictive and self-sabotaging behaviour patterns and return to joy in their lives. She is a lover, a lioness, and a believer in magic & miracles. In this podcast, we talk about low self-esteem, how it creates the building blocks of an addiction and what you can do to change it. We speak of the three words everyone likes to avoid when talking about alcohol abuse and that's sex. We also get stuck into conflict, anxiety, connection, trust, and how important it is to begin our education on alcohol abuse at a young level.

Before you go, do you want to join me in the trenches and learn what life is like in the middle of an addiction story? I'm not talking about the part when you are drunk out of your skull and can't remember anything. I'm talking about what comes after you quit. How do you fill the white space? How do you find a new community? How do you find meaning and purpose? If these questions interest you, then buy my new book Needy Helper 2015 Diary Excerpts: A Life After Alcohol - amzn.to/2axGveg Talking about community, how would you like to become a member of the Needy Helper Hub? It's a new idea to create a connected community, with support and a continual personal improvement process forever. It's my intention to be online as much as I can to answer any questions you have about your addiction and to continually update the Hub with training tools, tips and techniques to help you create a whole new life.
