Service work to me is the heart and soul is really the heartbeat of this program, because without service work, we wouldn't be able to reach out to another human being.
Picture this: Mike and Ed, the dynamic duo from 'Friends In Recovery', puffing cigars in a car while diving into a heartwarming discussion about service work in addiction recovery. This special Valentine's Day episode is not just about cigars and banter; it's a deep dive into how helping others can be a game-changer in the journey to sobriety. Mike and Ed bring their own stories to the table, illustrating how service work has been a cornerstone in their recovery.
They chat about the profound sense of purpose and fulfillment that comes from reaching out to others who are walking the same path. From driving folks to meetings to planting trees, they share various ways to get involved. Mike reminisces about his days driving people to meetings in New Jersey, even spotting fellow police officers in attendance. Ed recounts the Friends in Recovery Adventure, where they hiked a mountain and planted a plum tree.
They also give a shoutout to Tiffany, a dedicated member of their community, and encourage listeners to check out Sober Pride. The episode isn’t just a feel-good chat; it’s packed with practical advice on incorporating service work into your recovery journey. Mike and Ed highlight the benefits like developing humility, compassion, and a sense of gratitude.
They emphasize that service work doesn’t have to be grand gestures; it can be as simple as making a phone call or sending a text to someone in need. By the end of the episode, you'll feel inspired to find your own way to give back, understanding that service work is more than just an activity—it’s the heartbeat of recovery.
So, buckle up and join Mike and Ed for an enlightening ride that promises to leave you motivated and ready to make a difference.
