In this episode of 'Next Time I'll Try Knitting', JJ Chance takes a deep dive into the concept of giving oneself permission to succeed. With his usual blend of humour and raw honesty, JJ reflects on how the shadows of an alcoholic past can cast doubts on one's ability to embrace a brighter future.

It's a candid exploration of the mental barriers that often hold people back, even after they've achieved sobriety. JJ uses personal anecdotes to highlight the common fears and doubts that plague many in recovery. He questions whether past failures are indicators of future outcomes or just old ghosts that need to be laid to rest. With a clear head, he argues, one is bound to learn from missteps and move towards success.
The episode encourages listeners to flip the narrative and focus on the journey rather than the destination. JJ also touches on the importance of small victories and how they accumulate to create significant achievements. He suggests that sobriety is not just about avoiding alcohol but also about giving oneself permission to explore, fail, learn, and grow. The episode is filled with motivational insights and practical advice for anyone struggling with self-doubt in their recovery journey.

By the end, you'll be inspired to give yourself the green light to pursue new endeavours and live one sober day at a time. Why not tune in and see how JJ's reflections might resonate with your own journey? Sometimes, all it takes is a shift in perspective to unlock new possibilities.
