“[Gabor Maté] says: Don't ask the question ‘why the addiction?’”

Instead ask: “Why the pain?”

“Addiction is a response to pain, it is a connection disorder. The opposite of addiction is connection. So if you feel disconnected as a person, you're going to look for other ways to connect.”

In this episode, Joe Polish breaks down what’s fueling much of our current social malaise and what he sees as the path out of addiction.

Joe himself is a former addict-turned-entrepreneur and founder of Genius Network.
