In this episode of the Recovered Life Show, host Damon Frank sits down with psychologist Dr. Natalie Feinblatt, who specializes in addiction, trauma, and codependency.

Together, they take a deep dive into what it truly means to be "the fixer"—the person who constantly steps in to solve problems, keep the peace, and take responsibility for everyone else’s lives. Dr. Natalie shares key insights on where this compulsive need to save others comes from, how codependency operates in relationships affected by addiction or mental health issues, and how to spot the line between helpfulness and control.

Whether you've been a lifelong people-pleaser or are navigating your own recovery journey, this conversation provides actionable guidance on setting healthy boundaries, tolerating the discomfort of saying "no," and reclaiming your energy.

In this episode of The Recovered Life Show, host Damon Frank sits down with researcher and expert Dr. Radwa to explore a paradigm-shifting perspective on ADHD. Instead of viewing ADHD purely as a deficit or a problem to be fixed, Damon and Dr. Radwa discuss the incredible hidden benefits of the neurodivergent brain—specifically its connection to out-of-the-box creativity and problem-solving.

Dr. Radwa breaks down the science of mind-wandering, attention spectrums (focusing and defocusing), and how harnessing these natural patterns can unlock powerful creative abilities. Whether you are neurodivergent, navigating addiction recovery, or simply curious about the untapped potential of the ADHD mind, this conversation will change how you think about attention.
