How Admitting My Deepest Secret Saved My Life | Celebrate Recovery Story - Wesley Farnsworth

From Codependence to Freedom: Wesley Farnsworth on Addiction, Vulnerability, and Changing Your Stars In this deeply honest and transformative episode of The Alex Lo Show, Alexander Lo sits down with Wesley Farnsworth — a former pastor’s kid, military servicemember, and lifelong “master chameleon” who spent years hiding behind perfectionism, codependency, and a 20-year addiction to pornography. What started as a teenage attempt to fit in slowly became a cycle of secrecy, shame, and silent self-reliance that nearly consumed him. Wesley shares the powerful moment his life began to change: walking into a Celebrate Recovery meeting for the very first time, sitting alone in the back row, and suddenly breaking open when a stranger sensed the truth he was afraid to speak. That unexpected moment of vulnerability became the doorway to healing, honesty, and spiritual freedom. Through raw stories, emotional insight, and unfiltered transparency, Wesley reveals: How childhood pressure and codependency quietly shaped his identity Why secrecy fuels addiction — and how vulnerability breaks its grip What really happens inside a Celebrate Recovery meeting (and why it works) The role of accountability, brotherhood, and confession in lasting transformation How a scene from A Knight’s Tale inspired his book and the idea of “changing your stars” Why losing sight of your North Star creates drift — and how faith realigns your life This conversation is a powerful journey into healing, emotional courage, and the redemption available when you stop walking alone. If you’ve ever battled addiction, perfectionism, or the weight of trying to be everything for everyone, this episode will remind you that freedom is possible—and it begins with one moment of honesty. 🔗 Connect with Alex Lo: Website: https://www.thealexloshow.com/ Instagram: / thealexloshow 🔗 Connect with Wesley Farnsworth Website: https://wesleyfarnsworth.com/ #WesleyFarnsworth #AddictionRecovery #CodependencyHealing #CelebrateRecovery #OvercomingAddiction #FaithAndHealing #ChristianTestimony #PornAddictionRecovery #EmotionalFreedom #Vulnerability #ChangingYourStars #AKnightsTale #HealingJourney #SpiritualTransformation #TestimonyPodcast #TheAlexLoShow #ChristianRecovery #MentalHealthHealing #BreakTheCycle #authenticliving 00:00 – Introduction: Childhood and early life of Wesley Farnsworth 01:10 – Growing up as a pastor’s kid and self-imposed pressures 02:25 – Becoming the “master chameleon” and teen struggles 03:30 – Early addiction and attempts to overcome it alone 04:12 – Discovering codependency and its meaning 05:02 – First Celebrate Recovery meeting and initial hesitation 07:46 – The moment of revelation and sharing his 20-year secret 09:35 – Overcoming fear and finding love, acceptance, and community 11:38 – Importance of accountability and support systems 14:28 – Structure of Celebrate Recovery meetings explained 17:27 – Lessons, testimonies, and open share groups 20:06 – Growth through Celebrate Recovery and personal counseling 25:29 – Inspiration behind his book: The Blueprint of Becoming 27:14 – Using guides and accountability while reading the book 29:27 – Identifying the “stars” in your life and aligning with your North Star 30:24 – Continued involvement and supporting others in recovery 31:52 – How to find Wesley’s book and Celebrate Recovery resources 33:55 – Closing thoughts and final reflections
