Freedom Through Choices: Mary and David's Recovery Journey

The ability to choose brought me some freedom. The power of choice brings freedom, you know. Yeah, there's a lot of freedom from putting down the drink and working the program.
Ever thought about how much power lies in the choices you make every day? In this episode of 'Easy Does It', Mary and David dive into the profound impact of decision-making on their recovery journey. Married and both in recovery, they bring a unique perspective to the table, sharing personal stories and practical advice that resonate with anyone navigating sobriety.
David kicks things off with a humorous anecdote about his visit to the 'AA Burger Drive Thru', where he orders a 'Double Sober Burger' instead of a 'Fat Resentment Burger'. It's a light-hearted way to introduce a serious topic: the power of choice in shaping one's recovery path. The couple reflects on how their daily choices, especially during challenging times like the year 2020, have led them to a place of freedom and fulfillment.
They emphasize that it's not just about choosing not to drink; it's also about maintaining a positive attitude and making decisions that align with one's values. David shares wisdom from his sponsor, highlighting that every day presents a new opportunity to choose sobriety and, in turn, gain freedom. The discussion also touches on the current pandemic and the choice to wear masks as an act of care for oneself and others.
Mary and David remind listeners that recovery is a journey filled with choices, big and small, that collectively lead to a healthier, happier life. They also delve into the importance of the 12th step, helping others, and making up for lost time with family and loved ones. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that every choice counts and that freedom in recovery is attainable through conscious decision-making.
Tune in for an episode filled with warmth, humor, and invaluable insights from two people who truly understand the journey.
