Strengthening Family Ties in Sobriety: A is for Alcoholic's 'F is for Family'

I just need to be clear with myself about what I want to be dependent on... One of your favorite things is acceptance, like, if something's not going my way, the best thing I can do is just accept the way that it's going.
Family can be both a source of comfort and a challenge, especially when you're on the path to sobriety. In this episode of 'A is for Alcoholic', hosts John and Jerry tackle the intricate dance of setting boundaries and nurturing closer relationships with loved ones. They introduce the 'Feel, Felt, Found' technique, a practical method for connecting with other alcoholics that can also be applied to family dynamics.
The episode isn't just about theory; it's packed with personal stories and reflections that bring these concepts to life. John and Jerry also take a moment to celebrate Jerry's 44th birthday, reminding us that sober milestones are worth acknowledging. Despite technical hiccups that required a re-recording, the episode turned out to be a gem, full of relatable moments and valuable lessons. If you're navigating the complexities of family relationships while staying sober, this episode offers both empathy and practical advice.
