The Power of Admission: Danielle Dyess on Recovery's Crucial Step

If we ask god for forgiveness, we're doing it because to say it and to speak it and to admit to somebody else what you did, they're there to help you along the process of what you did.
Ever wondered why admitting your struggles to others is so important in recovery? In this episode, Danielle Dyess, a dedicated Florida State Representative for Celebrate Recovery, shares her transformative journey. From her initial hesitation to attend meetings to becoming a leader in the ministry, Danielle opens up about the pivotal role of Lesson 13 - Admit - in her recovery. She emphasizes that admitting your challenges and finding a sponsor are not just steps but lifelines in the recovery process.
Danielle’s story is a testament to the power of community support. She explains how speaking openly about past mistakes and seeking forgiveness can be daunting but ultimately liberating. With the backing of a sponsor who has walked the same path, the journey becomes more manageable. Danielle highlights how having someone stable in their recovery by your side can help you navigate temptations and avoid relapse.
The COVID-19 pandemic has added layers of difficulty to the recovery process, making community support even more crucial. Danielle shares how online meetings have been a double-edged sword—helpful for maintaining connections but challenging for those unfamiliar with the technology. Despite these hurdles, she stresses the importance of striving for peace and seeking help when needed. Danielle’s commitment to helping others extends beyond her role at Celebrate Recovery.
Working in Medicaid-assisted treatment programs, she uses her experience to guide others through their own recovery journeys. Her message is clear: seeking support from friends, community members, and sponsors can make all the difference. Even during moments of discouragement, it’s vital to remember that it’s okay to seek help. For anyone feeling lost or hopeless, Danielle’s story offers a beacon of hope and practical advice.
Tune in to hear her insights and learn why admitting to others is a crucial step in overcoming addiction.
