Finding Your Path: Embracing Change and Acceptance in Recovery

Acceptance is both an ending and a beginning. It often generates renewed energy and a sense of freedom and peace. We are no longer bound by our habits, our fears, our old ideas or our resistance.
Ever felt like you're stuck between a rock and a hard place when it comes to change? In this episode of Recovery Road, Craig Nakken, author of Finding Your Moral Compass, sheds light on the tug-of-war between resistance and acceptance. He explores how these opposing forces reveal our true selves and potential. The episode dives into why we often see change as a threat at work and in life, and how that fear can hold us back.
But there's a twist: embracing change that aligns with growth and positive principles can actually propel us forward. Acceptance isn't just about giving in; it's about gaining a fresh burst of energy and finding peace. Craig offers practical tools to help you navigate tough choices, especially when the path isn't clear. Through reflection questions, you'll get to the heart of what you're afraid of and discover the positive outcomes that can come from letting go of resistance.
Tune in to learn how to find your moral compass, shift from blame to acceptance, and move closer to your recovery goals. It's an episode packed with insights and practical advice that could make a real difference in your journey.
