Conquering Addiction from the Inside Out: Trauma Rewiring, Gratitude's Neuro Power, and Permanent Recovery Habits with Robb Kelly, PhD

What is addiction? There’s no easy answer there, and the science and understanding of addiction is continually changing. My guest today Robb Kelly has treated thousands of addicts and he believes addiction is not about the addiction. It’s not about alcohol or heroin or sex or pornography. That’s 1%. Robb believes the other 99% is about mind, trauma and beliefs. And he believes absolutely anyone and everyone has the ability to overcome addiction permanently and live to their fullest potential. 

Robb Kelly, PhD is a world-renowned addiction expert who treats the problem, not just the symptoms. For over 20 years, he has helped addicts and alcoholics reclaim their lives from the disease of addiction. With a PhD in psychology, decades of experience, and his own recovery as an alcoholic, Dr. Kelly is a “triple threat” against addiction. His philosophy, though unconventional, is grounded in extensive research and behavioral studies. Known as “The Gordon Ramsay of the Addiction World,” he takes a direct, no-nonsense approach, pulling the disease out of his clients and empowering them to fight back. He has worked with thousands, including celebrities, and lectured at leading universities and hospitals. Recognized worldwide as an authority on recovery, Dr. Kelly has witnessed the miracle of recovery in over 5,000 addicts once considered hopeless. Living as a recovered alcoholic, he has made it his life’s mission to help others achieve permanent recovery. His personal slogan, “Step out of the disease, and into the Solution”.
