Change yourself, change yourself and it will change the world around you.
Why do we often think changing the world will solve our problems? Dr. Jacques De Broekert tackles this question head-on in this episode of 'Doc Jacques: Your Addiction Lifeguard'. With years of experience as an addiction specialist, Dr. Jacques emphasizes that true recovery starts from within. He shares compelling stories and practical advice on why focusing on personal transformation is crucial for lasting change.
One poignant story involves a client who struggled with relapse until they took a hard look at their environment and realized the people around them were enabling their addiction. This episode isn't just about the 'what' of change, but the 'how'—how examining your relationships, behaviors, and surroundings can set you on a path to recovery. Dr. Jacques also warns against the allure of trying to change the world as a distraction from doing the tough inner work.
It's a powerful reminder that the most impactful changes often start within us. If you're looking for actionable advice and heartfelt stories to inspire your journey, this episode is a must-listen.
