I want you to ask yourself what you're waiting for...if the only thing you did Today was stay sober.
What if a simple children's story could offer you the motivation you need to stay sober? In this heartwarming episode of 'Decidedly Dry', Jess Steitzer takes a unique approach by reading 'The Little Engine That Could' by Watty Piper. This classic tale, which many of us remember from childhood, is more than just a story about a train—it’s a powerful metaphor for perseverance and hope, especially when it comes to sobriety.
Jess starts by revisiting the familiar narrative where a little blue engine, despite its small size, manages to pull a heavy train over a steep hill by repeating the mantra 'I think I can'. Through her engaging storytelling, Jess draws compelling parallels between the little engine's journey and the challenges faced on the path to sobriety. She highlights how the story's themes of determination and resilience can inspire those struggling with alcohol addiction to keep pushing forward.
Throughout the episode, Jess offers valuable advice on staying motivated and hopeful. She emphasizes the importance of building a supportive community, whether through 12-step programs, therapy, or online groups. Jess also reminds listeners of the numerous benefits of sobriety, from improved relationships to better physical and mental health. This episode isn't just for those new to sobriety; it's for anyone who needs a boost of motivation and a reminder that they are capable of overcoming their struggles.
Jess's warm and empathetic approach makes this episode feel like a comforting chat with a friend who truly understands what you're going through. So, if you're feeling hopeless or just need a little extra encouragement on your sober journey, tune in and let 'The Little Engine That Could' remind you that with determination and a positive attitude, you can conquer any hill.
