Understanding Character Defects: A Deep Dive with Sober Friends

I heard a wise old-timer at a meeting recently say, 'I brought out the defects of character in others.' Maybe my rotten behavior brought out the worst in the other person, whose bad behavior now gave me a resentment.
Ever wondered why certain people always seem to push your buttons? In this thought-provoking episode of the 'Sober Friends' podcast, hosts Matt J and Steve C tackle the complex issue of character defects and how our own behavior can sometimes trigger negative reactions in others. Drawing from personal experiences and wisdom shared by seasoned members of their recovery community, they explore the idea that our actions can bring out the worst in those around us.
This isn't just about finger-pointing, though. Matt and Steve emphasize the importance of taking responsibility for our own actions and making amends where necessary. They share practical advice on how to 'clean up our side of the street', using tools like prayer, meditation, and working closely with fellow alcoholics. Whether you're new to sobriety or a long-time member of the recovery community, this episode offers valuable insights into managing relationships and maintaining your own peace of mind.
Tune in for a candid discussion that combines humor, empathy, and actionable tips to help you navigate the tricky terrain of personal interactions.
