But you know what I need to retrain my brain to think chicken is delicious too.
Ever found yourself lost in the woods, literally or metaphorically? Corey Winfield has, and in this episode of 217 Recovery, he takes you through an eye-opening experience that reshaped his journey. Corey dives into the challenges of addiction recovery, sharing how faith played a crucial role in navigating treacherous times. He candidly discusses how addicts often turn minor issues into major obstacles, making mountains out of molehills.
Corey’s story of getting stuck in the woods after blindly following Google Maps serves as a metaphor for how he used to handle life's problems—by turning back to old habits instead of facing them head-on. This episode also tackles society's double standards when it comes to drinking. Corey finds it ironic that while people can joke about needing a stiff drink after a movie, addiction is still seen as a weakness.
He opens up about his struggle with sugar cravings and the need to retrain his brain to make healthier choices, like convincing himself that chicken can be just as satisfying. Through his reflections, Corey offers hope and practical advice for anyone on the path to recovery. His stories are not just about overcoming obstacles but about changing the way we think and live.
Tune in for a heartfelt and humorous take on addiction recovery that will leave you feeling inspired and understood.
