The Inescapable Self: Reflections on Sobriety with Nelson H.

I can't really have the same thinking as the guy in the cartoon that maybe if we go to a beach it'll all be good. It doesn't quite work that way.
Ever thought a new place or a fresh start would solve all your problems? Nelson H. has been there, and he's got some thoughts to share. In this episode of 'LOL Sober', Nelson reflects on the humorous yet poignant realization that no matter where you go, you can't escape yourself. Inspired by a cartoon from artist Will McPhail, Nelson dives into the idea that true change comes from within, not from a change of scenery.
He shares his own experiences of trying to outrun his problems by moving to new places, only to find himself facing the same issues. It's a funny yet eye-opening reminder that self-improvement is an inside job. Nelson also touches on how addiction affects relationships and the importance of addressing character flaws and resentments even after achieving sobriety.
With his signature blend of humor and heartfelt honesty, Nelson encourages listeners to take a moment for self-reflection and consider the ongoing work needed for personal growth. If you're looking for a mix of laughs and life lessons, this episode is a must-listen.
