Finding Strength Within: Jason LaChance on Sobriety and Self-Worth
No one will ever complete me
What happens when you realize that no one else can complete you? In this compelling episode of 'I Kissed Alcohol Goodbye', host Dana Michael Krull chats with Jason LaChance, the voice behind the 'Knockin' Doorz Down' podcast, who has been sober for 22 months. Jason's story is one of battling dual addictions to alcohol and love, and his journey to find validation within himself.
This conversation dives deep into the importance of self-worth and the power of community in the recovery process. Jason shares his 'red flag' moment—when he recognized his lack of coping skills in relationships—and how that was a turning point in his sobriety journey. They discuss the idea that external solutions can't fix internal problems and how Jason connected with his higher power by overcoming his ego.
One of the highlights is Jason's emphasis on mirror work and positive self-talk as tools for maintaining sobriety. As the holidays approach, Jason offers practical advice for navigating this often challenging time, stressing the importance of putting oneself first. This episode is perfect for anyone looking to understand the nuances of addiction and seeking practical tips for self-care and personal growth.
Tune in for an honest and uplifting discussion that reminds us all that the journey to sobriety is ongoing, but we don't have to walk it alone.
