What you don't own will own you. My story showing up in my life, meaning, like my past, who I am, who I've been shaped by all my habits, everything my story is showing up in my life right now, in the good and in the bad. It's just a matter of am I aware of it or not?
Ever wondered how your past influences your present? In this episode of 'Relational Recovery', hosts Wes Thompson and Austin Hill dive into the power of understanding your own story. They chat about how our past shapes our worldview and behaviors, and why it's essential to embrace every part of it for true growth. You'll hear them discuss the benefits of slowing down to map out your life story, identifying core memories, and filling in the gaps.
One key takeaway is that what we don't own will end up owning us. Our stories show up in our lives, whether we like it or not, and being aware of this can be a game-changer. The hosts also touch on the importance of leaning into unwanted desires and addressing their root causes. Ignoring parts of our story can hinder growth, so owning our past is crucial for recovery.
By understanding our story and worldview, we can better grasp why we make certain choices and how to change them. Tune in for an inspiring discussion that highlights the role of storytelling in the recovery process and encourages you to own your story as you embark on your journey towards recovery.
