A good family is hard to come by, don’t allow social media & society trick you into cutting off a good family because they are lacking in support in 10-20% of your life.
In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to feel disconnected from those who should be our closest allies—our family. In this heartfelt episode of Sobriety Warriors Podcast, host Nadia Jones dives into the often-overlooked value of family support in the journey to sobriety. Are you guilty of focusing on the 10-20% where your family falls short, rather than appreciating the 80-90% where they stand by you?
Nadia challenges us to shift our perspective and recognize the importance of even imperfect support systems. She acknowledges that family members might not always hit the mark in every aspect of our lives, but that doesn't mean their contributions should be dismissed. Instead, Nadia encourages listeners to meet their families where they are and to be grateful for the support they do offer.
It’s about understanding that nobody is perfect and that expecting flawless support might set us up for disappointment. Nadia also talks about the balance between appreciating our families and finding a tribe that aligns with our needs. She reminds us that while it’s crucial to seek out supportive communities, we shouldn’t hastily cut ties with family members who are trying their best.
This episode is a gentle nudge to reevaluate our expectations and practice gratitude for the love and support we already have, even if it comes with a few rough edges. Whether you’re navigating your own path to sobriety or supporting someone else on theirs, this episode offers valuable insights into maintaining and appreciating familial relationships. Tune in to hear Nadia's thoughtful reflections and practical advice on how to cherish the good while managing the not-so-good in our family dynamics.
