Crafting Your Recovery Team: Community, Guidance, and Accountability

Successful recovery is not for people who need it. It's not for people who want it. It's for who yep, it's for people who do it.
Ever wondered how to build a strong support system for your recovery journey? In this episode of 'Powerless to Powerful', Mark Mascolo breaks down Chapter 7 of his book, focusing on the essential elements of a recovery team. It's all about surrounding yourself with the right people who can lift you up and keep you on track.
Mark introduces the concept of the Phase 1 T2 Team, which consists of three key components: a community, a guide, and an expectation group. First up is the community. Mark emphasizes the importance of being part of a recovery community where you can see real-life examples of people who are making it work. It's not just about success stories; it's also about witnessing the ongoing struggles and understanding that you're not alone.
Human connection is vital, and being part of a local group can provide the support and inspiration you need. Next is the guide. This could be a sponsor, mentor, or coach—someone who can offer wisdom and experience as you navigate your path. Mark stresses the importance of humbling yourself and asking for help. Finding the right guide can make a significant difference in your journey, helping you align your actions with your goals. Lastly, there's the expectation group.
This is a circle of individuals who know you well and hold you accountable. It's about learning to be truthful with others so you can be truthful with yourself. This group helps you set higher expectations for yourself and keeps you committed to your recovery goals. Building a recovery team isn't a one-time task; it's a lifelong process. Mark's insights highlight that successful recovery isn't just for those who need it or want it—it's for those who actively do it.
So if you're ready to move from feeling powerless to becoming powerful, this episode is a must-listen.
