Sponsorship, Mentorship, lending a hand. Whatever you call it we all need help. And once we have been helped it is important to pay it forward. Not just in sobriety but in life. Service of any kind can help you get out of your head but before we can help others we must learn to live without alcohol. Ask for help. I promise there is someone willing.
What does it mean to truly lend a hand in the journey of sobriety? In this episode of 'A is for Alcoholic', John chats with Joe C. about the transformative power of sponsorship. Joe opens up about his personal experiences, sharing how having a sponsor—and being one—has played a crucial role in his recovery.
He dives into the idea that service to others can help you step outside of your own struggles, but emphasizes that you must first learn to live without alcohol before you can effectively help others. Joe's insights extend beyond just the practicalities of sponsorship; he also delves into the emotional and spiritual dimensions of recovery. He shares his thoughts on non-theistic approaches to spirituality and recommends 'The Tao of Sobriety' as a valuable resource.
The conversation also touches on the importance of seeking professional help to overcome depression and the power of simply asking for help when you need it. This episode is a heartfelt and enlightening discussion that offers both practical advice and emotional support for anyone on the path to sobriety.
