Welcome to AddictionZombie! Pardon the dust, this is a work in progress. This pilot episode and so let's get this ball rolling. In this episode, we introduce the concept of AddictionZombie and explain where I'm coming from with my mission to address addiction through self-preservation. I run you through a thought exercise that gets you into the survivor/fighter mindset we need moving forward. And I introduce you to the 5 things I want you to focus on daily and the self-assessment I want you to ask yourself at least once a week. Over the next several episodes we will be building the foundation that you'll use as a launching pad for the rest of your healthier, zombie-free life.
