Mom Guilt with the ladies of The Broke Girl Society FB group.

Mom Guilt with the ladies of The Broke Girl Society FB group.

Guilt is something all of us in recovery are familiar with, but mothers carry a whole other layer when it comes to their relationship with their children. Now, since I'm not a mother to human children (just the cutest cats ever), I brought in some reinforcements to share their experience with mom guilt and gambling. Terra with the Ambitious Addicts Podcasts along with Sarah and Mandi from the BGS join us for this chat.

Amy Zing Gray shares her story of recovery through the Art of performance.

Amy learned early on through her Peer Support work that she was going to be telling her story A LOT. So, Amy decided to create a show where she can use her artistic talent and tell her story in a different way. We talk a little about her story and she shares a few parts of her performance show with us. 

You can find Amy performing her show in/around Portland, OR. If you would like more information, you can contact her here: amyzing42@gmail.com

Talking about Isolation with Terra from Ambitious Addicts

Talking about Isolation with Terra from Ambitious Addicts

Terra and I talk about isolation and how it can play a role in our addiction and can impact our recovery. I'm an introvert and empath so isolation has shown up for me throughout my life. Gambling was a way for me to be social and nonsocial at the same time. 

Thanks for listening!

Dr. Nathan Smith - Kindbridge Research Institute

Dr. Nathan Smith - Kindbridge Research Institute

Dr. Nathan Smith from the Kindbridge Research Institute walks us through a gambling study done back in 1947. It was fascinating to see how relatable a study from so many years ago could still ring true in behaviors of a gambler today. We also talk about comorbidity (other health/mental conditions) and gambling addiction. Oh, and menstrual cycles, hormones and how they can affect recovery! 

You can reach Dr. Nathan Smith here: nathan@kindbridgeinstitute.org

Check out Kindbridge for online therapy help.

Lauren Greutman - Financial Coach, host of the Hard Money Talks podcast, and best selling author of The Recovering Spender.

For me, one of the scariest things about stepping out of the chaos of my gambling addiction was the financial mess I had created from the years of this addiction. I've had this conversation with so many others in the recovery community. I reached out to Lauren and asked if she would like to come share her story and wisdom on the podcast and she said, YES! Listen in as she talks about her own struggles with spending and how she was able to get herself out of thousands of dollars of debt. There's also a little bit of girl crushing going on!

Check out Lauren's website here: https://www.laurengreutman.com/ She has online courses and videos to help you build a plan to get your financial situation sorted out. She also offers one on one coaching. Also, be sure check out her podcast Hard Money Talks and her book The Recovering Spender.

Shout out to Gamban for sponsoring the podcasts! If you are struggling with online gambling, go to https://gamban.com/ and download the software to block online gambling sites.

Thanks for listening - Christina
