Patti C.'s Patchwork Path: Embracing Connection in Recovery

The opposite of addiction isn't sobriety, it's connection.
Have you ever felt that traditional recovery methods just don't fit your unique journey? Patti C. knows exactly how that feels. In this episode of Podcast Recovery, she shares her personal story of overcoming addiction through what she calls the 'patchwork approach'. Patti's sobriety date is 11/01/2014, and her journey is a testament to the power of connection over isolation. For Patti, recovery wasn't about sticking strictly to a 12-step program.
Instead, she found strength in a blend of different methods, choosing what resonated with her from both science-based and biblical-based programs. This eclectic mix became her 'patchwork', providing the support she needed to stay sober. Patti's story underscores a crucial point: the opposite of addiction isn't just sobriety; it's connection. She emphasizes how vital it is to find a community or support group that understands and shares your struggles.
That's why she created her own group, open to anyone battling any form of addiction, fostering an environment where connection and mutual support are paramount. Therapy also played a significant role in Patti's recovery. She highlights how talking to a non-biased party helped her process traumatic experiences and gain clarity. This multi-faceted approach allowed her to piece together a recovery plan tailored to her needs.
If you're searching for a fresh perspective on recovery or feeling disconnected in your journey, Patti's story might be the inspiration you need. Tune in to hear her speak about the importance of creating your own path and finding connection in unexpected places.
