Our guest is Joshua
Shea, he is the father of two children, husband to a wonderful wife,and a Recovering Addict. Joshua Shea lived a pretty normal andsuccessful life in Central Maine, working as a successful magazinepublisher, Film Festival founder, and eventually city council member.But he was hiding something, something at first he, himself, didn'teven know he had: some mental health issues, and growing addictionsto pornography and alcohol. In 2014 his life changed when he wascharged with a crime. Since that time he came to realize his issues,and with several years of sobriety under his belt he now works as anauthor and speaker on Pornography Addiction. He wrote the book on hispornography addiction available on Amazon Kindle. And speaks on thetopic of addiction, both alcohol and porn, but also the connection tomental health. And how to address their predictions before theydevolve into unhealthy or even criminal activity. While he is not amedical expert or a mental health professional, he is not trying toreplace any of those, he like most who have went through the recoveryprocess understands the issues better than most non-addicts. Andwhile he may not be a medical professional, he is not trying to be.He is trying to bring information and shine light on addictions ofall sorts, and specifically on that is so pervasive.Illuminate The Shadowlands Podcast
