Picture yourself hiding behind a mask, concealing your true self from the world. This episode of 'Friends in Recovery' pulls back the curtain on the masks we wear during addiction and even in recovery. Hosted by Jersey Ed, Miss Meg, and Podfather Mike Miles, the conversation is both revealing and heartfelt. They discuss how masks of fear, confusion, and despair can obstruct the path to genuine healing.
The hosts underscore the importance of having a support network and sponsorship to help strip away these facades. Miss Meg opens up about her own experience with wearing a mask of stability, allowing her to function despite her addiction. The episode also delves into imposter syndrome and the struggle to believe in oneself. They encourage listeners to create vision boards and visualize their potential, inspired by Tony Robbins' interviews with extraordinary individuals.
If you've ever felt like you're hiding behind a mask in your journey to sobriety, this episode offers both empathy and practical advice to help you break free and live authentically.
