A lot of my recovery has had to do with learning to be okay with being alone and to allow myself to be still, that there's safety in stillness, that I don't have to hustle for my worthiness, and that is a hard lesson to retain.
Imagine paddling across a serene lake, surrounded by the untouched beauty of Canadian woodlands. That's exactly where Jean McCarthy finds herself in this episode of 'The Bubble Hour'. With her phone safely tucked into her lifejacket, Jean shares a deeply personal and tranquil journey as she navigates the waters and her thoughts on sobriety. This isn't just a story about kayaking; it's about finding peace in solitude and the profound stillness that sobriety can bring.
Jean opens up about the challenges of being alone in recovery, a topic many can relate to but seldom discuss. She dives into the struggle of overcoming the constant need to 'hustle for worthiness' and how learning to enjoy life's simple pleasures can be a reward in itself. As she glides through the water, Jean's reflections are both soothing and thought-provoking, offering listeners a unique perspective on the joys and hurdles of living a sober life.
Whether you're new to recovery or have been on this path for years, Jean's insights will resonate deeply, reminding you of the importance of finding your own moments of stillness and joy.
