This week’s episode of Undimmed features a candid conversation with Dan Harris, former ABC News anchor and creator of the Ten Percent Happier meditation app, podcast, and book. Dan shares his personal journey with cocaine use, sparked by his experiences in war zones and his quest for adrenaline, leading to a panic attack on live television. His path to recovery involved therapy, quitting cocaine, and eventually discovering meditation, which transformed his relationship with his own mind.

Cecily and Dan delve into the complexities of substance use, including the nuanced differences between various substances like alcohol, cocaine, and MDMA, as well as the societal and personal implications of their use. They also explore mindfulness and meditation as powerful tools for understanding and changing one's relationship to substances and emphasize the importance of self-awareness in overcoming addictive behaviors.
