Embracing Powerlessness: A Path to Healing in SUD Recovery

If you admit that you're powerless over a situation, that actually gives you time to take a breath, to understand that your reactions...you want to control, you want to help, you want to fix.
What if surrendering control could actually set you free? In this episode of 'Siblinghood of Recovery', host Angie Reno dives into the often-overlooked concept of powerlessness in the journey of Substance Use Disorder (SUD) recovery. Angie, with her keen interest in neuroscience, explains how acknowledging our lack of control can be a liberating experience, especially for families grappling with a loved one's addiction.
She opens up about her own struggles and how embracing powerlessness has been a game-changer in her healing process. With references to influential works like Dr. Madeline Levine's 'The Price of Privilege' and Dr. Brad Reedy's 'Finding You' podcast, Angie brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. She also touches on the significance of trauma, co-dependency, and systemic treatment in the recovery journey.
This episode is packed with practical advice, including the benefits of group support and the transformative power of the 12-Step Program. Whether you're a parent, sibling, or friend of someone battling SUD, Angie's insights offer a beacon of hope and a reminder that you're not alone in this journey.
