The Delicate Balance of Sharing in Recovery Meetings

So go out there and feel safe, in the knowledge that you can share whatever fucking nonsense you want, and I will not shut you up.
Ever been in a recovery meeting where someone's sharing just didn't sit right? Maybe they were off-topic, disruptive, or strayed from the program's traditions. In this thought-provoking episode of 'Recovery (Sort Of) - The Podcast', Billy and Jason dive into the tricky terrain of managing shares in recovery meetings. They explore whether it's ever appropriate to ask someone to stop sharing and what the consequences might be for both the individual and the group.
Is it more important to maintain the integrity of the meeting or to allow everyone their moment to speak? How do you balance inclusivity with accountability? The hosts discuss various scenarios, offering their personal reflections and practical insights on how to handle these sensitive situations. Whether you're a meeting leader or a regular attendee, this episode offers valuable perspectives on navigating the complexities of sharing in recovery settings.
