How I FAKED RECOVERY (My PURPOSE in life is to BE ENTERTAINED)

How did Jay pretend to change when he really hadn’t? In this episode, Lori asks 11 HARD QUESTIONS to uncover the difference between performing recovery and experiencing true, internal transformation.

Jay answers honestly about the exhausting cycle of surface-level change:

• REHEARSING the “right” answers just to get Lori “off his back” and his prayers becoming “robotic”.
• How he engaged in “SPIRITUAL OLYMPICS” to throw everyone off—including himself.
• The SHOCKING moment a coach uncovered his core, entitled belief about his PURPOSE IN LIFE.
• The “Armchair Meeting of Needs” tactic he used in order to think he had changed.
• How he traded his shovel for a “backhoe” to finally GO DEEPER INTO TRANSFORMATION.

This episode is a must-watch for anyone struggling to BREAK THE CYCLE where one partner performs change without true, internal motivation.
