The little gods don't own or rule anything. I invented them. I made them up to give me a good excuse to take out my shortcomings on others.
Ever feel like invisible forces are pulling the strings in your life? In this episode of 'Next Time I'll Try Knitting', JJ Chance dives into the concept of 'little gods'—those pesky habits and impulses that can dominate our lives if we let them. Drawing from his own experience as a recovering alcoholic, JJ shares how these 'little gods' once held sway over him, dictating his choices and steering him away from a healthier path.
But don't worry, this isn't a tale of doom and gloom. With his trademark humor and raw honesty, JJ discusses how he learned to recognize these influences and, more importantly, how he began to break free from their grip. He highlights the crucial role of recovery tools like sharing stories, seeking support, and taking personal responsibility. By saying goodbye to these 'little gods', JJ found the freedom to live a sober life filled with hope and new possibilities.
Whether you're on your own recovery journey, supporting someone else, or just curious about the process, this episode offers valuable insights and a fresh perspective on overcoming addiction. Tune in for a candid conversation that might just inspire you to confront your own 'little gods' and take back control.
