If you've been doing something your whole life a certain way, but it's gotten to a point where it's not working anymore, and then you're faced with the pain of staying the same or the uncomfortable feeling of changing but it being better- ooh, that's what I'm talking about.
Ever felt like you're stuck in a loop, unable to break free from old habits? In this episode of Recovery Nuggets, host David Clemen takes us back to his early days of getting clean in 2001. Through a heartfelt poem and candid reflections, David shares the tough reality of being under house arrest and living with his dad. He opens up about how seeing his parents through a lens of gratitude helped him shift his perspective. The core message?
Sometimes, the pain of staying the same becomes unbearable, pushing us towards the discomfort of change and the growth it brings. Alongside David's story, Dr. Jamie Marriage joins the conversation, offering her own experiences and insights into addiction recovery. They both highlight the importance of support systems and daily meditation in maintaining sobriety.
Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a blend of personal anecdotes and practical advice that can inspire real transformation.
