It's just a little moment of gratitude to whatever I'm grateful for to me. But then I think, once that change starts to happen in your head and you start to regain the clarity, you're like, oh, I'm not entitled to shit.
Imagine needing to change your entire life to find true happiness. That's exactly what Jerry and John discuss in episode #16 of 'A is for Alcoholic'. Titled 'P is for Paradigm Shift', this episode dives deep into their personal journeys toward sobriety. They reflect on the haunting memories of their drinking days and use creative, nautically-themed metaphors to illustrate the rocky waters of addiction recovery.
One intriguing part of their conversation is how they used to hitch their personalities to their drinking habits. As bartenders, they felt immense pressure to fit a certain image, but eventually realized the need to detach from this persona to become people they genuinely like. Jerry and John also emphasize the transformative power of daily gratitude. They talk about how not feeling entitled and being thankful for what you have can lead to a significant shift in one’s recovery journey.
And as a cherry on top, they announce an exciting collaboration on a book! This episode is a heartfelt and candid exploration of what it means to undergo a paradigm shift in recovery, offering listeners a blend of personal stories and practical advice.
