Life is difficult. This is the baseline from which all else follows. When we accept life for what it is, we give up fighting. We surrender and accept the extent and severity of our dilemma.
Ever wondered why making amends is so crucial in recovery? In this episode of Take 12 Recovery Radio, Monty Dale Meyer, known as the Monty'man, dives into Dr. Allen Berger’s insightful book, '12 Stupid Things That Mess Up Recovery'. The spotlight is on the sixth 'stupid thing' - not making amends. Monty doesn't shy away from discussing the uncomfortable but essential task of taking responsibility for past actions and the profound impact it can have on personal healing and relationships.
With his characteristic empathy and understanding, Monty encourages listeners to embrace this challenging step, emphasizing that true recovery involves not just quitting substances but also mending the bridges burned along the way. This episode is perfect for anyone on their recovery journey or those supporting loved ones through it. It’s a heartfelt reminder that healing is as much about the relationships we rebuild as it is about the substances we leave behind.
