So build a few others and build ourselves. In recovery we have to be intentional about our own growth and we have to be intentional about helping a select few along as well.
Ever wondered how to balance personal growth with helping others in your recovery journey? In this episode of 'Healing Connections', hosts Wes Thompson and Austin Hill dive into the art of building sustainable relationships as a cornerstone of recovery. They discuss how being intentional about your own growth can positively impact those around you, and why it's crucial to strike a balance between self-care and caring for others.
Thompson shares one of the core values at The Refuge Ministry: the importance of intentionality in getting healthier. He explains that our sustained growth and well-being depend on focusing not just on ourselves but also on supporting a select few others. Hill adds that our interconnectedness makes community and shared growth essential components of recovery.
The hosts argue that focusing solely on personal growth can sometimes reinforce negative patterns, while concentrating only on helping others can lead to neglecting our own needs. The key, they suggest, is finding a middle ground where self-care and community support go hand in hand. This balanced approach not only fosters healthy personal development but also ensures a sustainable path to recovery. Listeners are encouraged to take actionable steps towards building healthy relationships while maintaining their own well-being.
By the end of the episode, you'll feel inspired and equipped with practical tips for creating a supportive community around you, making your recovery journey more manageable and fulfilling.
