The Power of Letting Go: A Path to Healing in Recovery

We say it all the time, in celebrate recovery we must give up control of whatever it is that we're trying to manage in our life under our own power.
Imagine trying to juggle everything in your life, only to realize that sometimes the best way forward is to let go. In this episode of 'Hope in Recovery', Rodney Holmstrom and Andy Petry dive into the transformative concept of surrendering control. Holmstrom shares a touching story about his daughter's unique food preferences, which led him to a profound understanding of the need to relinquish control.
Petry opens up about his own battles with shame and defensiveness, and how the Celebrate Recovery program helped him move past these obstacles. Together, they explore the pitfalls of living in the past and using it as an excuse for current mistakes. Instead, they advocate for relying on a higher power—God's power—to guide one's recovery journey. This episode isn't just about giving up control; it's about finding hope and healing by embracing surrender.
If you're grappling with the need to manage everything yourself, this conversation offers a refreshing perspective on how letting go can lead to true freedom and recovery.
