Let us be reassured to some people. We need not, and probably should not, emphasise the spiritual feature on our first approach.
Ever wondered why some recovery approaches work better than others? In this episode of 'Position of Neutrality', Joe McDonald and his co-hosts dig into the delicate art of reaching out to those we've hurt without overwhelming them with spirituality. They share personal stories about dealing with skeptical business partners and friends, emphasizing the need to show change rather than just talk about it. The hosts acknowledge that everyone’s recovery journey is unique and requires a tailored approach.
They caution against coming on too strong with spiritual talk, especially at the beginning, as it can be off-putting. Instead, they advocate for demonstrating a changed nature through actions. This episode is packed with relatable anecdotes and practical advice, making it a must-listen for anyone navigating their own or a loved one’s path to sobriety.
