Building Purpose and Vision in Recovery with Mark Gagarin

You start stewarding the resource you already have, giving people rides, picking up for meetings, doing this, that and the other. Yes, yeah, cause he, he begins to trust us more.
Ever wondered how to find purpose and vision while on the road to recovery? This episode of The Recovering Reality Podcast might just have the answers you're looking for. Recovery Coach Erik Frederickson sits down with Mark Gagarin, host of The Battle Tested Podcast, to dive into the crucial role of purpose and vision in overcoming addiction.
Erik, who has been sober for over 13 years, shares his wisdom on avoiding the 'lottery mentality'—the belief that success will simply fall into your lap without effort. Instead, he emphasizes the importance of taking small, actionable steps toward big dreams. By stewarding the resources you already have, like giving people rides or picking up for meetings, you build trust and lay a solid foundation for future success. Mark Gagarin echoes these sentiments with his own story.
Starting with nothing—no job, no car, and as a high school dropout—Mark took tiny steps that eventually led to his successful podcast and a thriving community of listeners. Both men highlight the significance of building trust, both in yourself and in your relationships. This episode is packed with practical advice and inspiring stories that show recovery is not just possible but can also be a journey filled with purpose and vision.
If you're looking to carve out your own path to success while staying sober, this conversation between Erik and Mark is a must-listen.
