Removing Character Defects: From Rage & Addiction to Accountability & Peace With Todd Spears

What happens when your character defects aren’t just “bad habits”… but survival patterns that start destroying everything you love? In this episode of American Recovery, Aaron Prager sits down with Todd Spears (Graham Allen Show / The Hot Seat) to talk about rage, addiction, ego, and the moment Todd hit a breaking point—and chose a different path. You’ll hear: ✅ How childhood trauma shaped anger and control ✅ The “imposter” life: looking fine on the outside, falling apart inside ✅ Why ego keeps people from changing ✅ What “being entirely ready” actually feels like ✅ Triggers, boundaries, accountability—and how real change sticks ✅ A powerful insight: “People don’t change until the pain of change outweighs the pain of staying the same.” If you’ve ever felt stuck in cycles you can’t explain—this conversation will hit home. #AmericanRecovery #CharacterDefects #AddictionRecovery #Anger #Ego #TraumaRecovery #FaithAndRecovery #Accountability #healing 📲 Watch our content ad-free on our app: https://prageru.onelink.me/3bas/vgyxvm79 Donate to PragerU: https://l.prageru.com/4jiAT85 Follow Aaron Prager: Instagram ➡️ (https://www.instagram.com/theaaronprager/) X ➡️ (https://x.com/theaaronprager/) Follow Todd Spears: Instagram ➡️ (https://www.instagram.com/toddspears1776) Facebook ➡️ (https://www.facebook.com/toddspears1776/) X ➡️ (https://twitter.com/toddspears1776) TikTok ➡️ (https://www.tiktok.com/@toddspears1776) Follow PragerU: Instagram ➡️ (https://www.instagram.com/prageru/) X ➡️ (https://twitter.com/prageru) Facebook ➡️ (https://www.facebook.com/prageru/) TikTok ➡️ (https://www.tiktok.com/@prageru)
