Evolving Beyond Sobriety: Embracing Your New Self
Sometimes others are too busy seeing who you were to see who you've become.
Imagine looking in the mirror and only seeing the person you used to be, not the person you've worked so hard to become. In this episode of 'From Sobriety to Recovery', Jesse Mogle tackles this very challenge. He dives into the struggle of recognizing your own growth and helping others see it too. Are you stuck seeing your old self, or are you embracing the new you that's blossoming through recovery?
Jesse talks about how our actions, behaviors, and even our words can either hold us back or propel us forward. He emphasizes that sobriety isn't just about quitting addictive substances; it's about healing the deep-seated trauma that led to addiction in the first place. One of the key points Jesse makes is the importance of a growth mindset. He urges listeners to be mindful of their language and to set intentions that align with their new life in recovery.
It's all about making conscious efforts to change old patterns and embracing the new you that's emerging. Jesse also highlights the power of community support, encouraging listeners to be kind and inclusive as they navigate their recovery journey. Whether you're new to recovery or have been on this path for years, Jesse's insights offer valuable guidance on moving beyond mere sobriety to a fulfilling, intentional life in recovery.
