Today's reminder: recovery can involve as much unlearning as learning.
Ever thought that someone else's sobriety was the key to your happiness? Joy de Leon once did. In this episode of 'Al-Anon Reflections', Joy opens up about her personal journey of unlearning old habits and discovering that true happiness comes from within. Initially, she believed her husband's sobriety would solve everything. But life had other plans, leading her to a path of self-discovery and acceptance.
Joy recounts her separation from her husband, a time that forced her to enrich her own life independently. When they reunited, she faced another challenge: balancing her own recovery with supporting her partner. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of how unlearning ingrained beliefs can lead to self-acceptance and happiness. Joy's story is a reminder that recovery isn't just about adopting new habits; it's also about letting go of old ones.
She found security and peace by accepting herself and the world around her, with a little help from a higher power. This episode is perfect for anyone struggling to find their own happiness or supporting a loved one in recovery. Tune in for an inspiring and relatable conversation that underscores the importance of self-care and acceptance.
