Shifting Gears: From Relapse Prevention to Thriving in Recovery

Your higher power will give you love, forgiveness, validation, acceptance, encouragement, hope- all those things whenever you're not able to give it to yourself.
Picture this: you're stuck in a rut, feeling like you're just surviving day-to-day. Now, imagine having a toolkit that helps you not only get out of that rut but also thrive. That's exactly what David Stoecker offers in this episode of 'Better Life in Recovery'. David, a well-known figure in the recovery community, breaks down an easy-to-follow framework designed to sustain personal recovery and help you build a solid foundation for the future.
He calls it the 'Locker Room' approach, and it's all about leveraging your past successes to re-engage with your community and become a vital part of it. David dives into the importance of a higher power in recovery, offering love, forgiveness, and hope when you can't muster it yourself. He also stresses the value of having a coach—someone living the life you aspire to in the next three to five years.
Mindfulness exercises and living above reproach are other key elements he discusses, along with the transformative power of sharing your recovery journey. Drawing inspiration from the movie '8 Mile', David reminds us that people who matter don't judge, and those who judge don't matter. The episode wraps up with a focus on building a supportive community and how living a life above reproach can contribute to a more compassionate world.
If you're ready to shift from merely surviving to truly thriving, this episode is your roadmap.
