Healing Bonds: Lauren Lansrud's Mother's Day Reflection

The miracle of recovery is that I can answer those questions in a way that I was unable to for Many Years Prior to working the twelve steps.
Mother's Day can stir up a mix of emotions, especially when you're on a recovery journey. In this heartfelt episode of 'Promise of Recovery', host Lauren Lansrud takes us through her deeply personal reflections on her relationship with her mother. She dives into how the 12 steps have been instrumental in healing and growing from past wounds. Lauren shares her experience with the tenth step, which involves taking personal inventory and reflecting on daily actions and interactions.
She candidly discusses grappling with selfishness, dishonesty, and people-pleasing tendencies. But it’s not just about self-critique; it's about transformation. On Mother's Day, Lauren reflects on how her relationship with her mother has evolved. Once rocky and unstable, their bond has blossomed into one of love, honor, and acceptance. She reveals how she broke free from codependency and learned to be emotionally available, not just for her mother but for herself too.
This episode is a touching reminder that the benefits of recovery are profound and that growth and healing are within reach through the twelve steps. If you're looking for a story of transformation and the power of making amends, this episode offers a beacon of hope.
