From Taking to Giving: Transforming Your Recovery Journey
When we replace our addiction with things like going to the gym, bench pressing, working out, and doing our job, those things don't cost us families, they don't cost us our lives, they don't cost us the opportunity to be rearrested or arrested.
What if the secret to a stronger recovery lies in shifting your mindset from taking to giving? In this episode of 'The Agents of Recovery', hosts Max Hall, Blu Robinson, and Brock Bevell dive into this powerful concept. They explore how addiction often traps us in a cycle of consuming—whether it’s time, energy, love, or money—and how breaking free involves becoming a producer of those same resources.
With their unique blend of personal stories and professional insights, these three experts tackle the challenges of overcoming addiction, managing mental health issues, and dealing with trauma. They also introduce the intriguing philosophy of the 'red wagon' and discuss how imposter syndrome can sneak into recovery journeys. Plus, they share tips on adopting a professional athlete's mindset to build resilience and become a positive force in your own life and the lives of others.
This episode isn't just about surviving addiction; it's about thriving and giving back.
