In every problematic situation, we look at our own part before we start blaming everyone...it helps you become more self-aware.
Ever wondered how sobriety can reshape your marriage? In this eye-opening episode of 'Genuine Life Recovery', Jodie Stevens, who has been sober for 16 years, shares her top three lessons from both her sobriety journey and 19 years of marriage. First up, Jodie emphasizes the importance of taking responsibility rather than playing the blame game. By focusing on your own actions and reactions, you can foster a more accountable and harmonious relationship.
Next, she highlights the need to always strive to be the best version of yourself. This means taking care of your physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Finally, Jodie introduces the concept of 'playing the tape forward'. This involves thinking ahead about the potential consequences of your actions, helping to avoid impulsive decisions that could harm your relationship. These lessons are practical yet challenging, but Jodie assures that they are worth the effort for a healthier, more respectful partnership.
Whether you're in recovery or simply looking to strengthen your marriage, this episode offers heartfelt guidance and actionable advice. Tune in for an inspiring discussion that blends personal experience with universal truths about love and commitment.
