For the first time on the fourth step, I got to see myself the way the world sees me, not the way that I think I am.
What happens when you take a deep dive into your own resentments, fears, and insecurities? In this thought-provoking episode of Sober Pod, hosts Carl and Ellen tackle the formidable Step 4 of Alcoholics Anonymous. This step is all about conducting a moral inventory, and trust us, it's not for the faint-hearted. Carl shares his raw experiences of dealing with anger and low self-esteem during his first year of sobriety, even admitting to many tearful mornings in the shower.
Ellen joins in with her own reflections, making this episode both relatable and eye-opening. They emphasize the importance of not facing this step alone—leaning on a sponsor can make all the difference. The conversation also touches on how emotional displacements and the infamous seven deadly sins contribute to our self-centeredness and selfishness. By taking a hard look at ourselves and confessing our wrongdoings, we can start to see ourselves as others do, breaking down delusions that have held us back.
If you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, this episode offers invaluable insights into the tough but rewarding process of self-discovery. Tune in for an honest, sometimes painful, but ultimately enlightening discussion that might just help you unpack your own emotional baggage.
