Balancing Arrogance and Humility: Craig Nakken's Insights on Recovery

Humility is protective. Without humility, we can easily fall back into instinctual reactions. Humility binds us to positive spiritual principles, especially during times of adversity and doubt.
Feeling like arrogance is holding you back on your recovery journey? You're not alone. In this episode of 'Recovery Road', host William C. Moyers sits down with Craig Nakken, author of 'Finding Your Moral Compass: Transformative Principles to Guide You in Recovery and Life'. Nakken breaks down how arrogance can distort our view of ourselves and the world, stifling spiritual growth. He contrasts this with humility, which he describes as a powerful tool for ethical living and personal development.
Through self-awareness and honesty, Nakken explains how we can temper arrogance and cultivate humility. This isn't about becoming weak; it's about gaining a correct perspective and finding strength in humility. If you're looking to navigate the complexities of recovery with a balanced moral compass, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
