The Addiction Nobody Talks About | Why You Stay Stuck

Join Vishrant’s Online Retreat 29th August - 4th September 2026 http://vishrant.org/retreats What if the hardest addiction to break isn't alcohol, drugs, or success but something far more subtle? When Angela reflects on years of counseling, recovery, and self-discovery, the conversation takes an unexpected turn. What begins as a discussion about therapy gradually uncovers a pattern that quietly shapes the way many people think, relate, and suffer.
