Powerless Me: Roger B. on Virtue, Empathy, and Community in Recovery

We're suffering because we have no solution to our living problem. I'm powerless over someone else's drinking or I'm powerless over my thinking.
Roger B., with over four decades of recovery experience, dives deep into the essence of powerlessness and virtue in episode 21 of 'The Gathering with Roger B.' Drawing from his own journey, Roger explores the concept of the 'false self' and how it can be a stumbling block in the path to recovery. He highlights the significance of spiritual growth, urging listeners to look beyond self-reliance and willpower.
Instead, Roger champions the importance of community support and empathy, stressing that recovery is not a solo endeavor but a collective effort. He also touches on the role of Al-Anon and how overcoming defensiveness and reactive behaviors can lead to a more compassionate and kind approach to life. This episode is packed with practical wisdom and heartfelt advice for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is.
Tune in to discover how embracing powerlessness can actually empower you on your recovery journey.
