About this episode

Josh Radnor's SHOCKING Revelations After HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER Fame! 

 

From Alcohol Addiction to Ayahuasca Journeys, Josh reveals how he found his True Self beyond "Ted Mosby"! 

 

Josh opens up about the DANGERS of Porn and the despair he found himself in after his quick rise to fame - including his reliance on alcohol, weed, and interactions with women to cope with stardom.

 

He also discusses about his spiritual journey ("God is a verb!"), his struggle with overemphasizing the opinions of others, how he sees himself through his enneagram and attachment style lenses, and how Ayahuasca changed EVERYTHING for him – from quitting alcohol to overcoming the fear of death!

 

Josh Radnor also breaks down:

- His newfound music career 

- Why society should broaden its definition of addiction

- His thoughts on Simulation Theory

- His negative experience with depression medication

- Anxious vs Avoidant attachment

- Addictive nature of porn, how it manipulates our sexual nature, and his choice to stop consuming it

- The notion of public ownership over actors

- Existential struggles of turning 50

- His recent marriage (+ what it's like to be married to an actual therapist!)
