Author: Tom Sutcliffe April 11, 2024 Duration: 46:40

Hi, and welcome again as we dive into the heart of recovery with Episode 5, exploring the daunting task of Step Four from the 12-step program.

Here, I get real about the ups and downs of confronting our deepest fears, resentments, and truths. Through stories of personal blunders, moments of vulnerability, and a touch of humour, we'll navigate the murky waters of making a fearless moral inventory of ourselves.

Whether you're new to recovery or a seasoned traveller, this episode promises raw insights, a few laughs and a 4 minute story about dog turds, proving that facing our true selves is where real transformation begins. Let’s embark on this journey together, embracing the good, the bad, and everything in between.

(15:45) Why COVID was amazing (for me)

(17:55) Dog Mess

Tom Sutcliffe used to work as an electrician, but these days you’re more likely to find him guiding people through breathwork in North Wales. His The (Not Very) Spiritual Podcast comes from that unexpected shift, offering a grounded, often humorous take on personal transformation. He’s not here with lofty promises or obscure jargon; instead, Tom shares the practical lessons from his own path through recovery, stress, and figuring things out. Each episode feels like a candid conversation, weaving together themes of mental resilience, physical well-being, and the cultural ideas we attach to self-improvement. You’ll hear honest discussions about navigating addiction, managing daily pressures, and how simple tools like conscious breathing can create real change. It’s a podcast for anyone who’s ever felt a bit adrift or skeptical of purely spiritual solutions, providing relatable stories and actionable insights without the pretense. The focus is on what actually works in the messy reality of everyday life, blending personal experience with broader thoughts on health and society. Tune in for a refreshingly direct and compassionate take on getting by and growing stronger.
