Hospitality's Role in Recovery: Bridging Divides and Fostering Growth

So it's a different approach to discussing difficult things, which we do all the time in the refuge, but also just in our day-to-day lives. We have to have difficult conversations, and it's much people are more likely to come to you to have those difficult conversations.
Ever thought about how a simple act of hospitality could change your recovery journey? In this episode of 'Relational Recovery', hosts Wes Thompson and Austin Hill unpack the transformative power of hospitality in both personal growth and community healing. Hospitality here isn't just about welcoming someone into your home; it's about cultivating an attitude of openness, a willingness to learn, and a genuine desire to understand others.
Imagine approaching every conversation not to win or to identify an enemy, but to truly connect. This mindset can make those tough conversations a bit easier and pave the way for real personal growth. Wes and Austin also dive into how this concept can be applied on a larger scale within the recovery community. They tackle the often divisive debate between medically assisted treatment and abstinence-based recovery, suggesting that hospitality could be the key to bridging these gaps.
They explore why disagreements often lead to offence and how showing love instead of trying to win an argument can make a world of difference. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of how understanding and love can transform not just individual lives but entire communities. Tune in for a fresh perspective on recovery that might just inspire you to approach your journey with a little more hospitality.
