Talkin' Trash Addiction Recovery Podcast
by Talkin' Trash
Talkin' Trash focuses on mental health awareness, treatment, and harm reduction. We believe many of us turned to substances for a reason, often trying to treat the symptoms while the underlying issues went unaddressed. We don't claim to have all the answers— we're four guys who survived with different recovery journeys, sharing our honest experiences. Through open conversations, we provide a platform for people in recovery to share their experience, strength, and hope, proving that recovery is possible and no one has to face addiction alone.

Fragmented to Whole: Life Lessons from 12 Step Recovery podcast artwork
Fragmented to Whole: Life Lessons from 12 Step Recovery
by Barb Nangle
Tired of feeling fragmented and overwhelmed? Fragmented to Whole: Life Lessons from 12-Step Recovery is your guide to creating a life of wholeness, authenticity, and healthy boundaries. Join Barb Nangle, a boundaries coach and speaker, as she shares raw and honest insights from her own journey and the principles of 12-step recovery. Discover how to set boundaries without guilt or shame, overcome people-pleasing tendencies, manage your emotions effectively, cultivate a stronger sense of self, and build healthier relationships. Barb's approach is raw, honest, and sometimes a little bit (okay, a lot) sweary. Barb doesn't speak for or endorse any particular 12 step program of recovery. Though she's a huge fan of 12 step recovery, and a member of two 12 step fellowships, she cannot speak for them. If you're ready for real talk and practical tools for transformation, tune in!

No More Desire ™ Porn Addiction Recovery podcast artwork
No More Desire ™ Porn Addiction Recovery
by Jake Kastleman
What have you tried so far to quit porn? Accountability buddies, talk therapy, internet filters, church or religious programs, or mindfulness techniques to 'get rid of cravings'… Many of these have merit, but they're often missing key elements for long-lasting sobriety. It isn’t enough to just “stop watching porn”. Porn addiction is a symptom of deeper, underlying challenges that I address using evidence-based psychological and behavioral practices.My mission isn't just to help people overcome porn addiction, but to give them each step to establish a recovery mindset and lifestyle. This is done using hands-on, daily exercises that retrain the brain and forge new habits that last a lifetime. Once this mindset and lifestyle are established, the desire for porn naturally fades. To discover how to stop porn addiction, join my Intensive Porn Addiction Recovery Program at nomoredesire.com/program

Emotional Sobriety: The Next Step in Recovery podcast artwork
Emotional Sobriety: The Next Step in Recovery
by Allen Berger & Thom Rutledge
Bill Wilson, co-founder of Alcoholic's Anonymous, wrote in 1952, "If we examine every disturbance we have, great or small, we will find at the root some unhealthy dependence and its consequent demand." Wilson suggested that if we could identify and continually surrender these unrealistic and unrecognizable demands, that we may then be able to accomplish what he imagined to be recovery's next frontier - something he called emotional sobriety. Flash forward 70 years, and join psychotherapists and best-selling authors Thom Rutledge and Dr. Allen Berger, who have taken up the mantle of exploring Bill Wilson's new frontier. Welcome to Emotional Sobriety.

by Becca Jacobson
What if sobriety isn’t about giving something up — but finally coming home to yourself… and having a few good laughs along the way? Welcome to Sobriety Snippets, the podcast where women over 40 discover that sober living isn’t about restriction — it’s about freedom, clarity, humor, and a powerful mindset for conscious health. Hosted by Becca Jacobson — educator, mentor, and recovered high-achiever turned conscious living guide — each short, heartfelt (and often hilarious) episode helps you shift from surviving to thriving, one soulful insight at a time. Here, sobriety becomes a spiritual and self-improvement journey — with a wink and a smile. See your past with compassion (and maybe a chuckle). Awaken to higher levels of consciousness and mindset mastery. Reconnect with your body, your truth, and your purpose. Move beyond binge drinking and awaken your natural clarity. If you’re ready to laugh, learn, and live alcohol-free with confidence, mindset, and joy, you’re in the right place. Sobriety Snippets reminds you that you’re not here to quit something — you’re here to remember who you are… and have fun doing it.

Intimacy After Infidelity | Cut Contact, Rebuild Trust, Shed Shame, Avoid Divorce, Forgiveness for Adultery podcast artwork
Intimacy After Infidelity | Cut Contact, Rebuild Trust, Shed Shame, Avoid Divorce, Forgiveness for Adultery
The go-to podcast for Christian women who are ready to heal their hearts, shed their shame, and come home to freedom in Christ. Ranked Top 2.5% Globally Do you ever wish someone would truly see you, not look past you or through you? Are you lying awake at night wondering if your marriage can survive infidelity...or if it’s time to let go? Are you exhausted from Googling answers, trying to fix things, and still feeling unheard, unseen, and stuck in shame? You’re not alone. And you’re in the right place. This podcast is a sacred, steady space for women navigating betrayal, emotional disconnection, separation, or the aftermath of an affair, who want more than surface-level faith answers. Here, we talk honestly about the heart, the body, the soul, and the brain, and what it actually looks like to let Jesus heal what’s been wounded. I’m so glad you’re here. I’m Kristina Joy, forgiven daughter of Jesus, mom, and coach. For years, I tried to break free from my own infidelity through sheer willpower, ”doing more,” and striving to be better. I read my Bible more. I tried to behave my way into freedom. None of it worked. Everything changed when I stopped trying to fix myself and allowed Jesus to meet me in the deeper places like my pain, my patterns, my unmet needs. Through prayer, research, embodied healing practices, and new rhythms of truth and grace, I discovered real freedom. Not just from the affair, but from shame, secrecy, and self-abandonment. On this podcast, you’ll find: A reminder that your dignity, worth, and identity are not up for debate Emotional and nervous-system awareness for real transformation Coaching guidance for clarity, boundaries, communication, and trust Gentle truth for women deciding what restoration actually means for them Whether your marriage is being rebuilt or released, you are allowed to heal. You are allowed to choose freedom. You are allowed to become whole. If you’re ready to: Stop living in secrecy and self-condemnation Experience God’s love without fear or striving Break familiar patterns for good Live with clarity, strength, dignity, and peace Then take a breath, find your safe space, and press play. This is where healing begins and where you come home to yourself, with Jesus. --- Let’s Connect: Facebook community: www.facebook.com/groups/intimacyafterinfidelity Instagram: www.instagram.com/kristinajoycoaching Email: kristina@kristinajoycoaching.com Let’s work together: www.kristinajoycoaching.com

TheWillpowerPodcast with Will Gordon
by Will Gordon
Sobriety podcast featuring real addiction recovery stories and practical tools that actually work. I'm Will Gordon. Boston school teacher, two-time organ transplant survivor, and a guy who used to hide vodka bottles in places I don't even like remembering. At 35, my liver and kidneys were done. Doctors said weeks, maybe less. Transplants gave me a second shot. Sobriety gave me everything else. This isn't some shiny recovery show. It's raw conversations about what addiction actually feels like, how messy getting sober really is, and the quiet moments that slowly pull you back to life. Every Friday I talk with people who've been to the edge - some still hanging on by their fingernails - and we unpack the doubts, the small wins, the tools that actually work when everything else fails. If you're fighting cravings, questioning if it's worth it, or just need to hear someone who gets it... this is for you. Real stories. Real tools. No bullshit. AND ALWAYS with Respect and Compassion. 🎧 New Episodes Every Friday: One listen could reframe your life. 🙏 Every donation helps keep this content going and reaching the people who need it most. → https://buymeacoffee.com/thewillpowerpodcast JOIN THE MOVEMENT: • YouTube: @TheWillpowerPodcast (full video eps—subscribe for the visuals that hit harder). • Audio Platforms: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Audible • Instagram: @thewillpowerpodcast (daily Reels, tips, and community vibes). • TikTok: @willgordonsober • Connect Direct: thewillpowerpodcast@gmail.com.

Guidance in Recovery is aiming to explore all the possibilities so that each listener can find their unique flavor of recovery and become better than they ever thought possible. It's not fast work, but it's strong work, and I believe that everyone can recover if given the tools that work best for them.

Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety / Spiritual Malady podcast artwork
Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety / Spiritual Malady
by - We Know Jack.
Our discussion is not partisan, licensed, nor is it an academic or scientific thesis, medical diagnosis, prognosis, philosophy, prescription, discipline, cure or treatment. Based on experience, we neither propose nor oppose any position, person, place, or thing nor do we promote rituals or any religious service - real or imagined. Listening indicates some interest in solving mental conflicts. Automatic reliance on what you hear is not suggested nor is it a substitute for taking direction from responsible parties you rely on, are cared for by or under the influence of, including professionals. Our conversation is about conditions we create, induce and impose, and control even while indisbelief we could possibly have anything to do with such ugly disturbances. We each determine these conditions or come to terms with the role we play by accurately diagnosing them. If your mental state seems wholly out of control that may not actually be correct. There is no greater enemy than the one we imagine to be our self. There is no greater impact anyone else can make on our experience since our brain is where choices are determined immediately alongside our pain and pleasure zones. Induced insanity is a disturbing mental condition. It allows we can make believe we have nothing to do with the problem. As a result it is easy to conclude there is nothing we can do about it. No amount of hopelessness can ever overcome this hopeless thought as long as it is maintained. Mistaking thoughts for reality causes misgivings about Reality and Truth. Life only seems complicated when we mistake how we think of life and truth as our reality. This position presumes there is not other reality. Feeling empty, alone, disconnected? Feeling out of place? Trying to find where you belong, yet never arrive? Seeking, searching, questioning day after day? Trying to feel better, get over the past or get past the present discomfort? Feeling hopeless about hopeless ideas is a good sign that our body language is guiding us accurately - even while we are not listening. Consideration is contemplative, awakened meditation. Absolute Knowing Awareness is simple because it does not change, it is natural and it is our nature - not an option or negotiatiable. Awe and inspiration are the realization that all possibility is present here, now, for all that is and all who are—always in all ways.Knowing’s nature is Absolute: not negotiable, occasional, or optional.There is no doubt where there is no question.Reality and Truth are the Substance of Life. Lying has no substance and so generates unhealthy, conflicted turmoil. Loneliness is an accurate reflection of disconnected, baseless thinking. Creating any cause while denying its effects sustains the vicious cycle of obsessive thoughts, which lie at the center of addictive behaviors.Einstein noted: “You cannot fix a problem with the same thinking that created it.”Symptomatic recovery does not cure obsessive mental illness; it cleans the lens so the problem can be seen. Emotional sobriety is sane living. When wrong is seen as wrong it is right. This does not correct the wrong but allows for correction. Peace on earth does not require the grave thought we must first be being buried in it.

Renegade Psych podcast artwork
Renegade Psych
by Ethan P. Short, MD
In more than a decade of training and clinical practice as a psychiatrist, I've become increasingly disillusioned by the American healthcare system. It prioritizes profit over progress at the expense of OUR health. The average American spends almost twice as much on healthcare as the next highest spending country, yet our life expectancy drags four years behind other industrialized nations and ranks OUTSIDE the top 50 in the world. The system is a disaster, yet it's broadcast as 'the greatest healthcare system in the world.' Renegade Psych wants to return medicine's focus to PROGRESS OVER PROFIT, and limit the influence and power of the pharmaceutical industry and big business entities, whose primary motivations are financial in nature. This conversational podcast is released monthly via SERIES on particular topics. There are 8-12 SEGMENTS, or episodes, per topic. I interview internationally-recognized experts in their fields AND relatively unknown, up-and-coming healthcare providers. Hopefully, we can educate patients AND providers about our medical system (especially mental health), so they can make better and more informed healthcare decisions.

The Intuitive Drop | Body-based Healing for Real, Messy Life podcast artwork
The Intuitive Drop | Body-based Healing for Real, Messy Life
by Lesley Turner | Somatic Practitioner, Intuitive Coach, Nervous System Expert
Do you feel like you've done all the work — the therapy, the books, the retreats — and still wake up wondering why nothing has actually changed? Are you carrying the weight of everyone else's lives while quietly running out of capacity for your own? Do you love your life some days and want to burn it all down on others? If that sounds familiar, you're in the right place. The Emotional Truth is a podcast for the midlife woman who knows something is still running in the background — she just hasn't been able to see it clearly yet. Each episode will help you identify the patterns that have been quietly driving your decisions, your relationships, and your body's response to stress — and start living without them running the show.Here's what we cover: 👉People pleasing and self abandonment 👉Emotional patterns in motherhood and relationships 👉Nervous system regulation for midlife women 👉Perimenopause anxiety and body changes 👉Mom burnout and mental load 👉Eldest daughter syndrome 👉Midlife identity and what comes next 👉Body based healing that actually sticks I'm Lesley Turner — somatic and intuitive practitioner, former naturopathic doctor of eleven years, and creator of the SEER Method®. I spent over a decade helping women from the neck up before I realized the real work happens in the body. Now I help midlife women finally see what's been running underneath the surface — and what becomes possible when it stops. Every episode is short enough for the school pickup line and specific enough to stop you in your tracks. Expect real stories, body-based truth, and the kind of pattern recognition that makes you pull over and think — wait, that's exactly me. Hit subscribe and start with the episode that catches your eye. Your body already knows which one. Ready to go deeper?

About Best Mental Health & Sobriety Podcasts

Addiction and mental health are deeply intertwined. Most people in recovery are also managing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, or other conditions that made substance use feel necessary in the first place. These podcasts speak directly to that reality.

The shows in this category cover dual diagnosis, the neuroscience of addiction and mental health, therapy modalities like CBT and EMDR, and real personal stories from people managing both recovery and mental illness at the same time. These aren't just motivational podcasts. They're substantive, honest, and grounded in lived experience.

The recovery community has voted these as the most valuable mental health and sobriety shows available. Browse the leaderboard and vote for the ones that have helped your own journey.
