My conversation with Dave Adamusko (The One Inside, ep. 211) was so rich, we just had to share more of it with you, our amazing Substack community! In this exclusive extended interview, we dive deeper into a question I've been asking all our guests: "Where are you finding hope right now?"
Dave shares incredibly personal insights, from his connection to a higher power to a very real and inspiring story about his family's journey with healthier eating, and how it brought profound hope by relieving his wife's chronic pain. You'll hear how seeing her playful spirit return has been a source of immense relief and hope for him.
We also explore his experience as an Enneagram Five and how even positive goals like healthy eating can activate parts that become obsessive and rigid, leading to unexpected challenges like discouragement and burnout. Dave opens up about those "little monsters" we create when we're hyper-focused on numbers instead of the deeper reasons behind our efforts. Relatable!
This extended chat offers even more insight on:
Dave's personal sources of hope, both spiritual and everyday.
The profound impact of his wife's healing journey on his family.
How our goal-oriented parts can sometimes lead us astray, even with good intentions.
Why flexibility is crucial when pursuing new habits and avoiding burnout.
Don't miss this candid and hopeful conversation, available exclusively for our Substack community.
