Soberina's Quest: The Humorous Side of Recovery Myths

"No matter how many frogs she kissed, not a single one turned into a prince. But Soberina was not to be deterred, sidelined or dissuaded. You see, she was firmly fixed on the notion that the only way to obtain a prince was to kiss frogs. So it was clear: it was the frogs that were wrong, not her wrong kind of frog."
Imagine a character so determined to find her prince that she kisses every frog in sight. That's Soberina Gratitude for you, the whimsical figure at the heart of 'Next Time I'll Try Knitting's' episode #7: NOT Step Two. Hosted by JJ Chance, this episode takes a playful yet insightful look at the myths surrounding addiction recovery. JJ uses Soberina's story to highlight how the addictive mindset often chases quick fixes, ignoring deeper issues.
It's not just about frogs and princes; it's about understanding the real challenges of sobriety and the importance of community support. With candid discussions, personal anecdotes, and a sprinkle of humor, JJ tackles the stigma of addiction head-on. He emphasizes seeking help, finding purpose, and building healthy habits as keys to overcoming addiction. This episode also features links to well-known recovery fellowships and services like Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, Cocaine Anonymous, Smart Recovery, and Turning Point.
Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone else, this episode offers a refreshing perspective that’s both engaging and enlightening.
