One way of looking at an addiction is leaning on something outside of yourself in order to avoid feeling the feeling that's in your body, so you can escape into something else, lean on a crutch, not have to cope.
Relationships can be tricky, but when you're in recovery, they come with a whole new set of challenges. In this episode of 'I Love Being Sober', Tim Westbrook chats with Love Coach Annie Lalla to unpack the dos and don'ts of love during recovery. Annie shares her wisdom on recognizing when a relationship is beneficial and when it might be a hindrance to your progress.
They dive into the crucial role of self-esteem in building healthy relationships, especially for those in recovery. Annie's approach focuses on helping her clients boost their self-worth to attract partners who truly complement their journey towards sobriety. She highlights the importance of facing emotions head-on rather than leaning on substances as crutches. By tuning into what genuinely makes you feel good at a body level, you can start making choices that enrich your life.
Annie also emphasizes the power of creating a life that feels like a celebration. Instead of seeking someone to 'rescue' you, she advises looking for partners who can collaborate with you in both work and life. This episode is packed with practical tips on dating strategies and how to make meaningful contributions in your relationships, fostering personal growth and lasting happiness.
