The humility that this program has given me, that transforming self-righteousness into humility is a tool for a good leader that just makes any cooperative effort much more successful.
Picture a life where you must first heal yourself to help those you love. That's Angela Ryan's story. A retired pharmacist and a dedicated Al-anon member for 16 years, Angela's journey is one of resilience and self-discovery. In this episode of 'Emerge. Evolve. Lead.', she sits down with host Maureen Ross Gemme to share her powerful narrative of overcoming personal challenges to become a guiding light for her family and community.
Angela opens up about her marriage to an alcoholic and the moment she realized that her children's well-being was at stake. This led her to make the tough decision to leave the marriage, prioritizing her and her children's mental health. She later found love again with John, who has been sober for 35 years, and together they created a nurturing environment rooted in the principles of the 12-step program.
What sets Angela's story apart is her emphasis on the importance of self-awareness and consciousness in leadership. She believes that before you can lead others, you must first 'fix yourself'. This principle has not only helped her navigate her own recovery but has also been a cornerstone in guiding her teenage son to become a well-adjusted young adult.
Angela also touches on the broader implications of addiction and recovery, discussing how not every family member may be ready or willing to take the same path. She stresses the importance of providing tools and support without trying to control others' journeys. If you're someone looking for inspiration on how to balance personal recovery with leadership, Angela's story offers valuable insights. Her message is clear: true leadership starts with self-healing and extends to uplifting those around you.
Tune in to hear more about Angela's transformative journey and the life lessons she's gathered along the way.
