Thom’s Nutshell: "Self-denial results in dependence. Self-acceptance creates independence."Waking up is a process, not an event. A road back to our true lost selves. Daniel Fulop-Furlano joins Allen to talk about his journey towards emotional sobriety, which began with the “Divided Sky” rehab retreat in Ludlow, Vermont. Dan’s book, “Sincerely, Delusional,” is a testament to both the sincerity of his delusion (which we also call “sleepwalking”), and the capacity, beginning with an earnest asking for help, that he’s built brick by brick as a person courageously exposing and addressing his deep set dependencies.Learn more about Dan and purchase his remarkable book: https://www.sincerelydelusional.comLearn more about Divided Sky: https://dividedsky.orgOur music is provided by the great southern artist Jefferson Ross.
