We're really talking about like: do I have the ability to be honest with myself?
Have you ever stopped to think about how well you really know yourself?

Drawing from their 20+ years of experience, they break down what self-awareness truly means and how it can be a game-changer for anyone battling unwanted behaviors.
The episode kicks off with a clear definition of self-awareness and quickly moves into its relationship with pride. Wes and Austin warn against the dangers of becoming too self-absorbed, offering practical advice on how to strike a balance. They also dive into the theological and biblical aspects, referencing passages from Jeremiah, Psalm, and First Timothy to underscore the importance of honest self-reflection. Throughout the episode, you'll find actionable tips on cultivating a healthy sense of self-awareness and self-acceptance.
This isn't just about looking inward; it's about using that insight to build healthier relationships and find real hope and healing. Whether you're at the beginning of your recovery journey or have been on the path for a while, this episode offers valuable perspectives that can help you navigate the complexities of addiction recovery.
