Lisa R: Embracing Change in Step Seven of Recovery
Step seven is not any kind of magic bullet. It is not okay. We say the prayer and all of this stuff is removed. It's creating an attitude and a willingness to be really aware, then, of our shortcomings as they come up and to take whatever action is required to actually shift our state of mind and shift our attitude in the moment that it happens every time, Every Single Day, over and over again.
Ever wondered what it truly means to pray for the willingness to change? Lisa R tackles this very question in an eye-opening episode of the SoberQ podcast. Step Seven is often considered a turning point in the journey to sobriety, but it's not just about asking for help—it's about actively seeking the strength to confront and transform your character flaws.
Lisa brings her own experiences to the table, sharing candidly about the process of identifying these defects and how this daily practice has shaped her recovery. She makes it clear that Step Seven isn't a quick fix but a continual effort to shift your mindset and attitude. This episode offers a beacon of hope and practical advice for anyone grappling with addiction, emphasizing that recovery is a day-by-day journey.
Whether you're new to AA or have been on this path for years, Lisa's reflections provide valuable insights and encouragement.
