from 2020-12-03T08:25:54
Rob and Tami discuss how to best manage your addiction when the outside world is so tempting. It’s easy to fall into traps and feel like you ‘deserve it’, but your actions have consequences and they not only hurt the people you love, but they’re hurting you too. Find out in this week’s episode how to manage the outside world without feeling like you’re just taking on the whole world.
