Judging Without Knowing: Snap Judgments and Second Chances in Recovery

It's not so much stopping ourselves from making judgments about people- cause I think we'd all find that impossible- but it's about recognizing when we've done it and then questioning it.
Ever caught yourself making a quick judgment about someone without really knowing them? In this episode of 'Sideways', hosts Graham Landi and Martin Pankhurst dive into the tricky world of snap judgments and the value of giving second chances. Martin confesses to misleading Graham in the last episode, and they even bring Hollywood star Julia Roberts into the mix, discussing how even celebrities aren't immune to hasty evaluations.
They wrap up with a quirky caution about avoiding leopards, especially if they've had a drink or two. But the heart of the conversation is all about how we can learn to recognize our own biases and grow from them. Graham and Martin share personal stories and insights, touching on addiction, recovery, and the importance of self-reflection. They remind us that while it's natural to make quick judgments, it's crucial to question and reassess them.
Whether you're navigating your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a blend of humor, empathy, and practical advice to help you see beyond first impressions.
