Ever wondered what it means to truly let go and let life unfold as it should? In this episode of 'Next Time I'll Try Knitting,' JJ Chance takes you on a cinematic journey through the metaphor of the 'Director's Cut.' JJ explores the idea of higher powers in the context of addiction recovery, comparing it to the often unseen, original vision of a film director.

Through humour and candid reflections, JJ delves into the conflict between our desires and the larger plans that life or a higher power might have for us. The episode is filled with relatable anecdotes and witty analogies. JJ uses the example of demanding a higher power like a wish-fulfilling Santa Claus, only to realise that real help doesn't come in neatly wrapped packages.
He shares his own struggles with accepting that life’s timing often doesn’t align with his own. Yet, he finds solace in meeting life halfway, understanding that sometimes, things just take time. This episode is a blend of light-hearted humour and deep reflections. JJ's storytelling style makes complex ideas accessible and engaging. If you're grappling with the need for control or struggling to accept help in your recovery journey, this episode offers a fresh perspective. Why should you listen?
Because sometimes, stepping back and allowing life to unfold can lead to a more peaceful, orderly existence—one sober day at a time. So, grab your popcorn and get ready for the 'Director's Cut' of your life. You might find it's a lot better than you ever imagined.
