Yeah, if you're making a change for the better for yourself, then that's something that should be applauded to me.
Picture this: Mark and Dave, two friends in recovery, sitting down for their first-ever in-person episode of 'Off the Rails Recovery'. They catch up on their weekends and chat about plans for the week in Lethbridge. But it’s not just small talk; they dive deep into some heavy topics that anyone on the recovery journey can relate to. Ever wondered how to handle alcohol triggers while traveling? They’ve got you covered.
Mark shares a particularly intense story about a scary situation at a soup kitchen and how he managed to stay sober through it all. They also discuss the importance of having a plan in place to deal with triggers, especially when you're out of your usual environment. The holidays can be a tough time for those in recovery, and Mark and Dave emphasize the need for resources and support during these times.
They touch on the idea that you don’t have to be an alcoholic to struggle with alcohol and celebrate any positive changes you make. Mark also brings up the 'Law of Subtraction', a concept from a book he’s been reading, and how it’s impacted his recovery journey. With their blend of personal anecdotes and practical advice, Mark and Dave offer a candid, supportive perspective that will resonate with anyone navigating the challenges of recovery.
Tune in for an episode that’s as enlightening as it is heartfelt.
