Now
\nthat Celebrity Rehab 4 is going to be airing, I notice I have
\nbutterflies in my stomach.  That familiar feeling that are people going
\nto be judging me again for my work on Celebrity Rehab.  No one can judge
\nme more than I sometimes judge myself for many things, but not this.  I
\ntotally have loved every minute working behind the scenes and in front
\nof the camera during the filming of the show.  Like I have always said,
\nthe show plants seeds for the celebrities as well as the viewers.  It
\ncompletely resonates with the work I do although it is television.<\/p>\n

I believe celebrities are truly not all that different than anyone
\nsuffering from an addiction.  Although sometimes, there are “yes” people
\nthat surround them, they have the same pain any one of us in the
\ndisease has.  The celebrities this year worked on issues in a very deep
\nand profound way.  For the first time, we explored childhood trauma in a
\nvery gut wrenching and real way and I am proud of every single one of
\nthem.<\/p>\n

I have been accused of being a “fraud” by many including people who I
\nthought were my friends and colleagues.  Dr. Drew once told me to get
\nused to that because there is a lot of “jealousy” out there.  I don’t
\nmind being open about this because I love what I do inside and outside 
\nthe set helping people get clean and sober and fulfill their wildest
\ndreams.  That is why I wrote the book “The Law of Sobriety.<\/a>” 
\nAgain, I have many people who love my book and perhaps I have helped
\nthem with the message.  Again, there are others who are jealous and
\ndiminish the time and effort I put into writing the book, but they are
\nentitled to their opinions.  I know my truth, but I am also in recovery
\nand can be hurt and feel the pain of others  judgments like anyone
\nelse.  That is the price you pay when you are public.  I am sure many
\nothers out there in the public feel the same way, but I just speak what
\nsome can’t say.<\/p>\n

When your values align with your true essence, you are doing the
\nthings you are good at and truly enjoy. You are making choices that
\nhonor your values. What are the moments in your life that have been
\nespecially fulfilling or rewarding? In those moments, you were aligned
\nwith your values. And in those moments, the energy of the universe
\nfilled you with drive and fulfillment and peace.  That is how I feel
\neveryday because my work is my calling and my purpose, and I am so
\ngrateful that I get to wake up doing what I love each and every day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
