Showing Your True Self: Embracing Vulnerability in Recovery

I think that it's important to be authentic...we're all human, right, and I'm not perfect at being vulnerable all the time or talking about things, but I try to be, you know, a little bit better Every Single Day and I try to be more human.
Ever feel like you have to put on a brave face all the time? In this episode of 'You're Sober! Now What?', hosts Tamar Medford and Lane Kennedy tackle the often-overlooked topic of vulnerability in recovery. Tamar opens up about a personal moment where she allowed herself to be vulnerable in front of a client, breaking down the walls of perfection and showing her true self.
This candid experience not only deepened their relationship but also highlighted that it's okay to have tough days, even when you're in long-term recovery. The hosts dive into the fear many of us have about being judged and how developing emotional intelligence can help overcome it. They touch on the unrealistic standards set by celebrity culture and the importance of being authentic, both in public and private life.
This episode also explores how community and gratitude play crucial roles in recovery, providing a support system that makes it easier to be your true self. Tamar and Lane emphasize that living up to your true potential and taking action towards your purpose are essential steps in the journey of recovery. To cap it off, Tamar invites listeners to share their own stories of gratitude, offering a chance to be featured on future episodes.
This episode is a heartfelt reminder that showing your true self is not a sign of weakness but a strength that can enrich your recovery journey.
