Detaching isn't always easy but it's always worth it. Even though letting go around the alcoholic (or any person, place or thing) seems like the exact opposite thing to do, it is -- in our experience -- the path to serenity.
Have you ever clung to someone or something so tightly that you lost sight of yourself? Julia knows the feeling all too well, and she's here to share her wisdom on the art of detachment. In this episode of 'Cross Talk', hosts Corey and Claire sit down with Julia to explore how letting go can lead to true serenity, especially when dealing with addiction.
Julia opens up about her personal journey, revealing how detachment isn't just about cutting ties but about setting healthy boundaries and making different choices. She emphasizes the power of taking contrary actions, even in small ways, to bring about meaningful change. Her insights are particularly valuable for those struggling with alcoholism or any other addiction, where the instinct is often to hold on tighter in an attempt to control the situation.
Throughout the conversation, Julia and the hosts touch on several key themes. They discuss the role of a higher power in recovery, the importance of self-compassion, and the unglamorous reality of making tough decisions. Julia also delves into the concept of shame and how it can hinder recovery, sharing how Al-Anon helped her become kinder to herself. Corey and Claire's engaging style makes this episode both informative and relatable.
They ask the questions many of us have but might be afraid to voice, creating a space for honest dialogue. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Julia's experiences offer a beacon of hope and practical advice. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking peace through detachment. Tune in to 'Cross Talk' and discover how letting go can pave the way to a more serene life.
