Boosting Self-Esteem: The Key to Thriving in Recovery

Improving your self-esteem enhances the whole you.
Ever wondered how self-esteem plays a role in your recovery journey? This episode of Recovery Road, hosted by William C. Moyers, digs into just that. Drawing from Michael Wetter and Eileen Bailey's book, *What Went Right: Reframe Your Thinking for a Happier Now*, the episode offers practical advice on overcoming self-defeating thoughts and building a healthier self-image. When struggling with addiction, self-esteem often hits rock bottom. But as you rebuild your life, your sense of self can rise too.
Wetter and Bailey's techniques show how to break free from negative self-perceptions and embrace a more positive outlook. From handling stress better to enjoying more fulfilling relationships, the benefits of healthy self-esteem are vast. Plus, you'll learn why accepting imperfections and letting go of a negative self-image are crucial steps in recovery. This episode is packed with insights and tools to help you boost your self-esteem and improve your mental health.
Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, these lessons are invaluable.
