But the delayed gratification is the key to my recovery, in that I don't want to make the compulsive, impulsive decision to not pray, to not read the bible, the same that I don't want to pick up and have a beer.
Ever wondered how a diagnosis can lead to a life-altering journey? In this moving episode of 'Real Recovery', Janessa opens up about her battle with pain medication addiction and her incredible path to finding purpose in Honduras. Her story starts with a medical issue that spiraled into dependency on painkillers, a common yet often overlooked struggle. After years of feeling trapped, Janessa reached a breaking point—she was utterly fed up with being 'sick and tired'.
With faith as her anchor, Janessa embraced the difficult road to recovery. She talks about the importance of delayed gratification and how it helped her regain control over her life. But her journey didn't stop at sobriety. Feeling called to serve, she found a new mission in Honduras, where she's now making a difference in the lives of others. Throughout the episode, hosts Bill and George offer thoughtful insights and pose questions that dig deep into the challenges Janessa faced.
They discuss the role of faith in her recovery and the impact addiction had on her relationships. Honesty, they reveal, is a crucial part of the healing process. Janessa's story is a testament to the power of faith, resilience, and the human spirit. Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a beacon of hope and practical wisdom.
Tune in for an inspiring conversation that will leave you with a renewed sense of purpose and the belief that change is possible.
