About this listen

 Have you ever felt stuck in the cycle of always trying to heal, improve, or prove you're enough? In this episode, Josh Connolly returns for a real conversation about sobriety, shame, fatherhood, self-worth, over-identifying with our wounds, and letting go of the pressure to always be doing “the work.” Josh shares how the release of his book, It's Them, Not You, and 13 years of sobriety have changed how he sees himself—and how he's redefining success, service, and community. We also explore the danger of staying stuck in the healing loop and the freedom that comes when we let go and allow joy. 🎙️ Topics include: 13 years of sobriety and owning your storyHow to tell when healing becomes a trapBeing of service vs. people-pleasingBuilding authentic communityThe simple magic of being present Josh shares candid reflections on shame, growth, and creating from love—not lack. If you’ve ever wondered if it’s okay to slow down, stop fixing, and just enjoy being human… this episode is for you. 💬 Share your thoughts in the comments — we’d love to hear how it lands. 📘 Get Josh’s book: It's Them, Not You- https://amzn.to/4dDOnJy 🎧 Listen to his podcast: Dysfunctional- https://open.spotify.com/show/1ynhjlOQSCohLbClpCZyAy?si=cd1c778a4abe491b Josh's Website- https://www.joshconnolly.co.uk/ Follow him on Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/josh_ffw/ 🛍️ Support the Podcast & Get Exclusive Discounts: 🧥 Woolly Clothing - High-Quality Merino Wool Clothing 🔗 Shop Here → https://woolly.clothing/stephandcraig Use Code STEPHANDCRAIG & Save 15% 💧 Routine- Organic Electrolytes 🔗 Shop Here → https://yourroutine.com/STEPHANDCRAIG Use Code STEPHANDCRAIG & Save 10% 🌿 Nutrotonic - Authentic Himalayan Shilajit 🔗 Shop Here → https://nutrotonic.com/products/authentic-himalayan-shilajit?sca_ref=7936665.MVte5TFbbt Use Code STEPHANDCRAIG & Save 15% 🍳 Heritage Steel - Stainless Steel Cookware made in the U.S.A. 🔗 Shop Here → https://www.heritagesteel.us/STEPHANDCRAIG Use Code STEPHANDCRAIG for 10% off 🎙️ Connect with Steph & Craig:🎥 Watch the Episodes on YouTube → https://www.youtube.com/@stephandcraig/?sub_confirmation=1 📘 Follow on Facebook → https://www.facebook.com/stephandcraig 📸 Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/steph.and.craig/ 🎭 TikTok → https://www.tiktok.com/@stephandcraig 📝 Subscribe on Substack → https://substack.com/@stephandcraig Expect the Best.
