Finding Your Tribe: The Power of Sober Friendships

Show me your friends, I'll show you your future.
Ever wondered who you should hang out with when you're newly sober? In this episode of 'Real Recovery Talk', host Tom Conrad breaks down the importance of choosing the right sober friends. Tom, drawing from his own journey and those of others, explains why it's crucial to surround yourself with people who have more sobriety time than you when you're just starting out.
These seasoned individuals bring wisdom and experience that can guide you through the early, often rocky stages of recovery. But it doesn't stop there. As you gain more years of sobriety, Tom suggests that it's equally important to give back by supporting those who are new to the journey. This creates a cycle of support and wisdom-sharing that benefits everyone involved. Tom's approach is simple yet profound: 'Show me your friends, I'll show you your future'.
Whether you're just beginning your sobriety journey or have been on it for years, this episode offers valuable insights into building a supportive and wise sober network. Tune in to learn how the right friendships can make all the difference in your recovery.
