Stopping a compulsion is hard enough—until you realize your brain is secretly shopping for a replacement.

In this episode of Brazen Recovery, Jacob and Miriam sit down with Dominic Beaufeaux from White Mountains Counseling to talk about cross-addictions—how they can look like sobriety and help you avoid the real work of recovery. Dominic is a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) and Certified Multiple Addiction Therapist (CMAT) through IITAP, certifications that are monumentally helpful for those looking to heal from addictive behavior.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why healing can feel like a tiring game of Whack-a-Mole
• How modern technology and novelty feed compulsive behavior
• The importance of getting to the root of the issue to avoid cross-addicting

If you love movie references and honest conversations about breaking free from addictive behavior, you won’t want to miss this one.
