Recovery is a little bit more than someone just putting the drugs down right. And the four non-negotiables are that people have recovery mentors, community of like-minded individuals, willingness to find the right people, and the ability to put more energy into themselves than others.
Ever wondered what it truly takes to thrive in recovery? In this episode of 'The Unbreakable Boundaries Podcast', Jennifer Maneely shares her wisdom on the four non-negotiables that can make or break your journey. Drawing from her own experiences with severe addiction and codependency, Jennifer offers a heartfelt and practical roadmap for anyone seeking a more fulfilling life. Jennifer starts by explaining why she took a brief hiatus from recording and what listeners can look forward to in future episodes.
She then dives into the core topic: the four non-negotiables of recovery. These are recovery mentors, a community of like-minded individuals, the willingness to find the right people, and prioritizing self-care over others. Each of these elements plays a crucial role in setting and maintaining effective boundaries. Recovery mentors are highlighted as indispensable guides who provide tools, strategies, and coping techniques that don’t involve substances. But Jennifer is quick to point out that mentors alone aren’t enough.
Building a supportive community of people who understand your journey is equally vital. She encourages listeners to be proactive in finding the right individuals who can offer genuine support. One of the most compelling parts of the episode is Jennifer's discussion on the importance of putting more energy into oneself than into others. She shares her personal struggles with this concept, emphasizing that it's okay to prioritize your own well-being.
Making tough decisions, she argues, is essential for a fulfilling life. Jennifer also touches on the emotional triggers and 'shame buttons' that many in recovery face. She invites listeners to sit with these feelings and understand what sets them off, offering valuable strategies for managing these challenges. This episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone on the path to recovery, providing actionable advice and emotional support.
If you're ready to take control of your life and set boundaries that work for you, this episode is a must-listen.
