This week is part two of a profound conversation with Todd Ritchey. In this conversation, we go deep into the neurochemistry that keeps our mind and body addicted to destructive behaviours and how to change them.

Todd is the Co-Founder of TRANSFORMD, the home of the Answer Model. The Answer Model is a framework that enables you to break free from the loop of painful patterns that keep you stuck. As humans, we develop unconscious biochemical addictions to our own pain and emotional distress. We all, in some way, whether large or small, are playing out trauma patterns, adhering to limiting self-beliefs and stories that keep us stuck, and preventing us from being our authentic selves.

Todd Ritchey is an expert in the field of Addiction Treatment.

Over the past twenty years, his neuroscience-based model has helped thousands of people get free from dysfunctional patterns and go on to live healthy, happy lives. He is driven by a passion for alleviating needless human suffering.

Todd has worked on the front lines of mental health and client-centered care. He is a compelling speaker and educator, the co-author of two books, a loving husband of 36 years, and a proud father of three.

Scratching the surface of what 30 years as a Thai Forrest Monk can teach us about the nature of the mind. This week on FWS we talk with Ajahn James Morrison.

James was a Buddhist monk from 1990 to 2022. After completing a bachelor’s degree in Eastern religious studies, he lived in Thailand for 15 years undergoing intensive training in meditation and living a life of austere simplicity. During this time, he studied and trained with many of the most famous Buddhist masters of that era.

James is now a recognised meditation master in his own right, based at the Redwood Hermitage in California. He is the author of numerous books, articles and translations, and has extensive experience teaching retreats and mindfulness in daily life.
