Navigating Early Sobriety: Insights from 'Casting Light' with Sam

It's encouraging, though at the end of the day, because if you're being honest, like I heard you say honest earlier, like it's all good.
Ever wondered what it's like to be on the rollercoaster of early sobriety? In this episode of 'Casting Light', Dan and Debbie sit down with Sam, who has been a guiding force in Doug's recovery journey. They dive into the highs and lows of having strong beliefs and how these can be both a blessing and a curse in recovery. Sam opens up about the vital role therapy and sponsorship play, sharing his personal experiences and practical advice.
The conversation also touches on the delicate balance of being tough on loved ones and what it truly means to 'know' something in the context of recovery. With anecdotes about Doug's early days of sobriety, this episode offers a raw and honest look at the challenges and triumphs that come with the territory.
Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or just curious about the process, this episode provides a wealth of insights and a good dose of humor to keep things light.
