Good People,
Today, I’m joined by the Movement Master, Author, and Recovery Advocate, Steven Washington. In his “previous life,” Steven had a successful career as a contemporary dancer at New York City Opera, Metropolitan Opera, and Broadway in Disney’s The Lion King. To deal with the anxiety caused by performing at that level, plus a rooted sense of not enoughness, Steven relied on drugs and alcohol and became an addict. After over 20 years of sobriety, Steven sees his addiction as a blessing in disguise, an opportunity to have another life.
Steven’s truth is to realize he is enough, that he has always been, and once he fully embraced that idea, he experienced a massive breakthrough and a profound transformation.
Our conversation revolves around Steven’s first meeting with his truth, his recovery from addiction, and the decision to explore, learn and experience Traditional Eastern medicine and become a practitioner. We also talk about his book, “Recovering You,” his love for Qigong and the energy he can generate through its practice, how complementary and different Western and Eastern medicine are, and so much more.
