Healing Without Blame: Ricki Friedman on Addiction, Adderall, Ayahuasca & Self-Discovery
Feb 801:02:01Tap to summarizeIn this powerful and deeply honest conversation, Ricki Friedman joins Jason Ingber on the Jason Ingber Podcast, alongside Doreen Benjamin, to share her raw journey through grief, addiction, healing, and self-discovery. Ricki opens up about losing her mother to cancer at just 13 years old and how being prescribed Adderall at a young age shaped her emotional world. She reflects on decades of disconnection, heavy weed use, stimulant dependency, and how addiction became a way to escape unprocessed pain. She shares what it was really like to quit weed cold turkey after 15 years, why getting off Adderall and Vyvanse after nearly 30 years was the hardest challenge of her life, and how losing her relationship, job, and sense of stability ultimately became the turning point that set her free. Ricki also dives into her transformative Ayahuasca experience in Costa Rica, explaining how the medicine forced her to confront herself, heal long-held trauma, and step fully into her purpose. That journey reignited her passion for coaching and led her back to helping thousands of people break free from addiction, emotional patterns, and self-sabotage. This episode is for anyone navigating: • Adderall or stimulant dependence • Weed addiction • Grief and unresolved childhood trauma • Breakups and identity loss • Personal growth and healing If you're searching for hope, clarity, or proof that real change is possible, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are. 🎧 Listen until the end for Ricki's most powerful insights on healing, freedom, and living up to your full potential.

Dec 1501:46:40Tap to summarizeIn this episode, Jason and Tehran dive into a wide-ranging, no-filter comedy podcast conversation that blends humor, culture, politics, and personal stories. What starts with Tehran wearing sunglasses indoors and a Versace bathrobe quickly turns into jokes about offense, identity, race, and social commentary purely for laughs.

Tehran also shares his experience as a barred attorney who chose a different path. The conversation jumps from absurd to provocative as they riff on geopolitics, the CIA's role in Iran, Israel-Iran conflict, October 7th, and the idea that nations themselves are constructs, all through a satirical and comedic lens.

Pop culture makes its way into the mix with jokes and commentary on Kanye West, hip hop culture, celebrity controversy, Winnie the Pooh, P. Diddy, Kevin Hart, Dave Chappelle, and Nick Cannon. Legal chaos is not spared either, with humorous takes on high-profile lawsuits, the Epstein list, the O.J. Simpson trial, and the Alec Baldwin case.
