In this powerful conversation, JB Copeland sits down with Dr. Gabor Maté, world-renowned physician and author of In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts, to unpack the deep link between trauma, addiction, and healing.
We explore how childhood wounds shape adult struggles — from people-pleasing and guilt, to the way addiction becomes a survival strategy. Dr. Maté shares profound insights on why we suffer, how our bodies store pain, and what it really takes to begin the journey toward freedom.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in old patterns, battled self-blame, or wondered why moving forward feels so hard — this episode will give you clarity, compassion, and practical wisdom.
✨ In this episode:
Why addiction is not the problem, but the attempt to solve one
How childhood experiences shape self-worth and emotional survival
The role of guilt, shame, and people-pleasing in adult relationships
Why facing our deepest emotions is the first step to healing
Practical shifts for self-compassion, forgiveness, and recovery
Dr. Maté reminds us that healing isn’t about perfection — it’s about reconnection with self.
