Journaling and Community: Michelle Smith's Insights on Recovery Happy Hour

I personally feel like journaling is free therapy and, honestly, I've never, not once gone back to read what I've written over the past two years. What this has done is created a tool that I know I can use anytime I'm confused or frustrated.
Ever thought about how journaling could change your life? In this episode of Recovery Happy Hour, Tricia Lewis chats with Michelle Smith to uncover the real benefits of putting pen to paper. Michelle, a strong advocate for journaling, describes it as 'free therapy' that can help anyone—whether you're in recovery or not—navigate through past traumas and daily anxieties. This conversation isn't just about scribbling in a notebook; it's about unlocking a powerful tool for emotional healing and self-discovery.
Tricia and Michelle also dive into the importance of community in the recovery journey. Michelle shares how solidarity played a crucial role in her own path to sobriety, emphasizing that having a supportive network can make all the difference. They tackle common obstacles like the fear of missing out and societal pressures, offering practical advice on how to overcome these challenges.
And if you're curious about recent buzz in the recovery world, they discuss the controversial Tropicana 'Take a Mimoment' campaign, which sparked quite a backlash. Michelle encourages everyone to take charge of their recovery and stand firm in their beliefs. This episode is packed with valuable insights and practical tips for anyone looking to enrich their recovery journey or simply live a more mindful life.
Tune in for an engaging and enlightening conversation that could inspire your next step towards sobriety.
