The idea of doing service work beyond the rooms of-step programs was in my head. I need to get better at that. I really do.
Ever thought about what 'service' really means in sobriety? In this episode of 'LOL Sober', Nelson H. digs into the often overlooked aspect of service beyond the confines of sober programs. Picture this: Nelson, a seasoned veteran of sobriety, finds himself driving his family to a baby shower in New Jersey. It's a simple act, but it sparks a profound realization about the true essence of service work.
Nelson shares his early days in sobriety, where he was quickly voted in as a greeter at his first 12-step group. It was a role that not only helped him stay connected but also made him realize the importance of service in maintaining his sobriety. Fast forward to now, and Nelson challenges himself to extend this sense of duty beyond the walls of sober meetings.
In this heartfelt episode, Nelson explores how acts of service can transcend the usual boundaries and become a part of everyday life. He candidly discusses the struggles and rewards of serving loved ones and how these actions can foster deeper connections with others in recovery. By moving past selfish tendencies, Nelson discovers a more fulfilling path in his sober journey.
If you're curious about how service can enrich your life and sobriety, this episode offers valuable insights wrapped in Nelson's signature humor and honesty. Tune in to learn how you too can find greater meaning and satisfaction by serving others both inside and outside the sober community.
