I still find great value in sharing stuff with friends and family, for sure. Great friends and family. But I also find tremendous value in sharing with my sober network. I would never advocate to only have people in your life who are in recovery because it's, you know, it's like, we're not all perfect people here in the recovery world either. So I love the balance. I hope I never again have to try to go through my life without that balance.
