Recovery is recovery. But it's been my experience: people who are newly sober...it's these small life skills and reminders of one's own personal dignity really summing up the definition of recovery, as far as I'm concerned.
How do you transform the fragile beginnings of sobriety into a lasting lifestyle? Patrick Babcock, founder of Foundation House, shares his journey and insights on this episode of 'One Hour at a Time'. Host Mary Woods engages Patrick in a heartfelt conversation about the critical elements that make early recovery sustainable. With over 13 years of continuous sobriety, Patrick knows firsthand what works and what doesn’t.
He emphasizes the importance of personal responsibility, life skills, and maintaining dignity throughout the recovery process. Patrick also sheds light on how societal pressures and co-occurring disorders can complicate recovery but insists that understanding these challenges is key to overcoming them. The discussion covers the spiritual aspects of recovery, the value of sober living environments, and why small reminders of personal dignity can make a big difference.
This episode is packed with practical advice and genuine encouragement for anyone navigating the path from early sobriety to long-term success.
