094 – Jeremy French – Making Whole

All Network Episodes, Conversations With A Wounded Healer

“My role in this program is to create fertile ground. That’s it. And then what I’m going to do is rely on the fertile ground to do the work of growing the plants. And so rather than being the guy that’s growing the plants, I’m just creating the framework for that to happen.” ~Jeremy French

Jeremy French is a maker. He’s made lots of cool things – a sober life worth living, a marriage, some really great kids, time to spend outside, some furniture, and a business –Making Whole– that teaches addicts how to make these things for themselves. He’s really excited to figure out how to help make more things that make life better for more people.

Sarah and Jeremy discuss the unique ways his business helps people in early recovery learn about radical compassion, tolerating uncertainty, and solve problems.

093 – James McDonald – Our Capacity to Feel That Much

All Network Episodes, Conversations With A Wounded Healer

“That’s our humanity: our capacity to feel things that much.” ~James McDonald

What happens to someone with an opioid addiction? Popular debate currently limits their recovery to two outcomes: a lifetime of fruitless struggle or death.

Why don’t we hear more and talk more about addicts getting better? Of addicts living meaningful lives?

Those are the questions at the heart of James McDonald’s work. He wants to change the public discourse so that conversations centered around addiction and recovery include positive narratives of hope and healing. Such shifts in perspective could positively impact the way addicts are supported and greatly improve recovery outcomes.

In this final episode of 2020, James and Sarah discuss addiction and recovery in terms not often expressed in the mainstream dialogue. They also share their insights on a myriad of other topics — personal trauma work, imposter syndrome — and get to the heart of why wounded healers love the work they do.

Originally hailing from Seattle, James is a Milwaukee transplant and current Counseling Psychology Ph.D. student at Marquette University. He is an aspiring psychologist and researcher passionate about whole-person healing.
