Creative Status is a podcast about using creativity as a vehicle for improving your life by deconstructing ego, integrating the shadow self, and designing and manifesting a real life.
Every episode explores how the creative process can help you GROW REAL by moving towards wholeness in yourself by making the unconscious conscious.
In this episode, we delve into the realms of addiction, trauma, and spirituality with Eric Fisher, a recovery counselor and addiction specialist.
Together, we unpack the complex tapestry of the human psyche and the pervasive nature of addiction in our lives.
The Illusion of the Void: Eric Fisher sheds light on the 'void' that drives the addictive itch, exploring the origins of addiction and how it reflects the underlying relationship we have with ourselves.
Fragmentation to Wholeness: We discuss the fragmentation that occurs during childhood and how it leads to the formation of a 'false self'—a facade that we cling to, often resulting in 'spiritual suicide'.
Letting Go to Grow: Eric provides actionable insights on how to let go of the ego, embrace our true selves, and heal from the spiritual suicide that keeps us trapped in cycles of addiction and self-deception.
Creative Status: Embracing Realness
Join us as we explore the journey from disconnection to wholeness, the grieving process of letting go, and the cultivation of qualities like curiosity, honesty, and gratitude that guide us back to our authentic being.
It's a conversation that not only enlightens but also offers a path to liberation from the chains of our addictions.
Stay real out there,
Oli Anderson
