Digging Deep: Uncovering the Real Causes of Addiction
I've noticed throughout the years that, if we're addressing the root cause, there's this point where you get to do in a fourth and fifth step, and that's usually where people say, no, I'm good, I don't really want to do that, because things have gotten better, they've experienced some sobriety, but they've never got to the root cause and they choose not to get there.
Why do some people struggle with addiction while others don't? In this episode of the Soberholic Podcast, Roger Boaz and Jason Rice tackle this tough question head-on. They argue that to achieve lasting sobriety, it's crucial to identify and address the root causes of addiction, rather than just treating the symptoms. Drawing from their own experiences and reflections, they discuss how step work can help individuals uncover deep-seated issues and insecurities.
Roger and Jason also touch on the role of faith and spirituality in recovery, offering a balanced view on acceptance and change. As they put it, 'If we're addressing the root cause, there's this point where you get to do in a fourth and fifth step... they choose not to get there'. Tune in for an enlightening conversation that promises to offer practical advice and heartfelt insights for anyone on the path to recovery.
