When I came to the program, that was one of my biggest surprises: finding out how much of my life I lived in deception and denial, which is a form of dishonesty.
Ever questioned what 'rigorous honesty' really means in recovery? Michele R from AA and Kim G from Al-Anon take center stage at the 2013 Journey to Serenity Festival to tackle this very topic. In this episode of The Recovery Show, they lead a thought-provoking workshop that digs deep into the essence of honesty, its various forms, and its pivotal role in the recovery journey.
They don't shy away from the tough questions: How have you been dishonest with others and yourself? What has recovery taught you about living truthfully? Michele and Kim's candid discussions reveal that dishonesty isn't just about telling lies. It can be as subtle as denial or self-deception. Through their own stories and the experiences shared by workshop participants, they uncover practical tools for embracing honesty, including the importance of spirituality and the power of community support.
The episode also delves into the complexities of maintaining honesty in relationships and underscores the need for self-care. Michele and Kim remind us that honesty is not a final destination but a continuous journey that demands courage, humility, and the backing of a supportive community. Whether you're new to recovery or a seasoned veteran, this episode offers valuable insights into the transformative power of living authentically.
Tune in to hear how embracing honesty can lead to a more serene and fulfilling life.
