The purpose of the show is to really take you, the listener, through this journey with me. Anybody who says that this is a perfect journey, you know, from a to b, is probably not being honest with you or themselves.
Imagine reaching the milestone of sobriety and then wondering, 'What’s next?' That’s the question Tamar Medford and Lane Kennedy tackle in this episode of 'The Now What Society'. With their combined 36 years of sobriety, these hosts know that getting sober is just the beginning. They share their wisdom on how to stay that way and grow throughout the recovery journey. This episode marks the start of Season 10, and it’s packed with insights that are both practical and heartfelt.
Tamar and Lane delve into the often-overlooked aspects of long-term sobriety, like maintaining self-awareness and continuing personal growth. As Tamar puts it, 'You get sober and the excitement's gone. Now what?' The answer lies in exploring the root causes of addictive behavior and changing those negative internal dialogues. Lane adds that building long-term recovery is a marathon, not a sprint, and it’s about embracing every twist and turn along the way. Community support is another cornerstone of their discussion.
They highlight how crucial it is to find your tribe—whether through 12-step programs, online communities, or other supportive networks. As Lane notes, 'The longer you stay clean and sober, the smaller your circle gets.' That’s why it’s essential to seek out like-minded individuals who can offer support and encouragement. Throughout the episode, Tamar and Lane share their personal stories with a mix of humor, honesty, and vulnerability.
They stress the importance of staying humble and shining in sobriety, even when the journey gets tough. 'Anybody who says that this is a perfect journey...is probably not being honest with you or themselves,' Tamar says. Instead, they encourage listeners to embrace the highs and lows and to build a supportive community around them. If you’re looking for real talk about long-term sobriety, this episode is a must-listen. Tamar and Lane offer a refreshing perspective that’s both inspiring and practical.
