David C takes centre stage in this episode of the SoberQ podcast, sharing his insights on the importance of taking inventory in recovery. With his sobriety date going back to 1st May 2007, David speaks from experience and offers practical advice on why writing things down is crucial. He reflects on how, during his active alcoholism, he struggled to distinguish truth from falsehood, often driven by emotions rather than facts.
By taking inventory, David explains, he could finally see his actions clearly and understand how his behaviour affected others. He draws on wisdom from recovery literature, emphasising the need to look at one's own actions rather than just focusing on what others have done. David's message is clear: getting it all down on paper helps separate different relationships and experiences, making it easier to understand one's own behaviour.
He encourages everyone to embrace the fourth step, describing it as a spiritual and enlightening process that can bring immense clarity. David's candid discussion is both relatable and inspiring, making this episode a must-listen for anyone on their recovery journey.
