Host Peter Garcia interviews Matt Codde, therapist-turned-coach and creator of Restored Minds, about his personal recovery and his book From Stuck to Unstuck (the AAA Response). Matt explains why he sees OCD and anxiety not as a chronic disease but as patterns of fear and resistance that can be transformed.
The episode explores how intrusive thoughts form, the limits of exposure-only ERP, and the importance of addressing emotional resistance, releasing stored emotion, and shifting states of consciousness to heal.
Matt offers practical first steps: seek guided support, learn to face emotion without resistance, combine behavioral exposures with emotional release, and view recovery as an ongoing shift into trust rather than a one-time cure.
