The Recovery Minute: Embracing Expectations with Compassion

I will treat others with the tolerance and forgiveness that I seek for myself.
Ever wondered why we often hold others to the same high standards we set for ourselves? In this episode of Unashamed Recovery's 'Recovery Minute', hosts Josh and Drew dive into the tricky world of expectations. They chat about how we can sometimes project our personal expectations onto others, forgetting to offer the same kindness and patience we crave. This isn't just about being nice; it's about fostering a supportive environment where everyone feels understood and valued.
Drawing inspiration from the AA Big Book, they highlight the importance of self-forgiveness and recognizing our own humanity. By doing so, we can better extend grace to those around us. Additionally, the episode sheds light on the commendable efforts of End it for Good, a nonprofit in Mississippi dedicated to drug policy reform and harm reduction.
If you're on a journey of recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on treating others—and yourself—with the compassion we all deserve.
