Courage in Recovery: Dr. Ken's Guide to Embracing Vulnerability and Growth

We need courage and recovery because we're likely to fall down. We're likely to trip up and have some slips, relapses. Somehow we get tempted, there's a part of our breaking free from an attachment that pulls us back to it that says, oh, I need to go back to where things were. But that doesn't always happen in recovery. That means we've got to change some things up, new routines. And so, in order to be able to try new things, we need courage.
Dr. Ken Buckle takes listeners on a heartfelt journey into the essence of courage in recovery. This episode kicks off with a calming prayer, setting a reflective tone for the discussion ahead. Dr. Ken expands the concept of recovery beyond just addiction, touching on mental health struggles like depression and anxiety, as well as physical illnesses. His message is clear: we all face challenges that require courage to overcome.
He delves into what makes someone courageous, pointing out traits like self-confidence and having clear goals. These qualities, he argues, help us stay on track and try new things, even when old habits are hard to break. Vulnerability is another key theme in this episode. Dr. Ken emphasizes that sharing our struggles and opening up about our experiences is tough but essential for healing and growth. He also talks about the transformative power of recovery.
It's not just about fixing what's broken; it's about becoming the best version of ourselves. This transformation is a journey that takes time and effort, but Dr. Ken assures listeners that it's worth it. He encourages everyone to use the resources available to them and to remember their worth in this process. The episode wraps up with another prayer and a gentle reminder that donations are welcome to support the work of 'Encounter with Dr. Ken'.
