This week on The Nick Halaris Show we are featuring social entrepreneur Will House. Will is the founder and CEO of Oberit, an innovative new company using AI, neuroscience, and incentives to help people overcome addiction. When I met Will and heard his inspiring story of redemption, I knew instantly I had to have him on the show as his willingness to be vulnerable is manifesting incredibly positive results in the world. Addiction is one of these issues that we all “know about” but, for some reason, tend not to talk too much about. But it is a staggering global problem, impacting, by some estimates, over 30% of the population and is one of the leading causes of suffering in the world.
I wanted to have Will on the show to highlight the important work he and his colleagues at Oberit are doing in the fight against addiction and to share his galvanizing mission.
In this important episode you’ll learn:
· How Will was able to overcome his own struggles with addiction and why that drives him in his noble mission to help others
· The sobering truth about the scale and severity of the global addiction problem
· Why what we are learning about neuroplasticity should give us all hope not only that we can beat addiction but also that we can change anything in our lives
· The surprising power that simple practices like gratitude journaling and daily affirmations can have in the recovery process
· How Oberit’s innovative product is filling a crucial gap in the market by giving people helpful tools and support in the re-entry phase of recovery
&
· Much, much more
We also discuss things like the frightening natural evolution of addiction, why hitting rock bottom is a necessary step in the recovery process, and why it’s so important for recovering addicts to maintain a sense of agency in their lives. Stay tuned to the end to hear why Will is so committed to proving that Oberit can play a meaningful role in preventing relapse and fill a massive void in the world of care options for those in recovery.
