The three things I'll leave with you on this podcast: don't try to change other people, don't try to impose your will onto somebody else. You are not god, I am not god.
Ever caught yourself trying to change someone, only to end up frustrated and disconnected? Michael Stoller knows that feeling all too well. In this heartfelt episode of 'Blueprints for Emotional Sobriety', Michael opens up about his past mistakes of giving unsolicited advice and trying to impose his will on others. He shares how these actions strained his relationships and disrupted his emotional balance. Through candid storytelling, Michael reveals a new approach he’s found—one rooted in compassion and self-awareness.
Drawing wisdom from the steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, he emphasizes the power of praying for others instead of trying to control them. The Serenity Prayer plays a pivotal role in his daily life, helping him accept what he cannot change and focus on what he can. Michael's journey is a testament to the importance of being kind and gentle with oneself and others.
He urges listeners to share their experiences rather than dictating actions, fostering a sense of empathy and understanding. Tune in for a dose of inspiration and practical advice on navigating relationships with grace and humility.
