Life in the Fast Lane: The Power of Choice in Addiction Recovery
And when we start to realize that the freedom comes from the release of the bondage to ourselves, we're in bondage.
What if the choices you thought you had were just an illusion? In this episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio', Monty Dale Meyer, affectionately known as the Monty'man, teams up with Toni J., Bruce H., and Marv R. to untangle the web of powerlessness and choice in addiction. They dive deep into whether we ever truly had control over our substance use or if it was always beyond our grasp.
Can you lose the ability to make the right choice, and more importantly, can you get it back? The discussion doesn't shy away from tough questions about moral decisions, the role of a higher power, and the transformative gift of desperation. The episode wraps up with Beth Champion Mason's heartfelt song 'I Want to Live Like That', leaving listeners with a sense of hope and inspiration.
This conversation is perfect for anyone wrestling with addiction, seeking a deeper understanding of recovery, or supporting a loved one through their journey.
