Nobody else is responsible for our sobriety. We are the ones who direct, live, and own our sober experience.
Ever catch yourself blaming others for your struggles? In this episode of 'Spirit of Recovery', Rev. Dan Beckett and Rev. Michelle Vargas tackle the crucial concept of self-sufficiency in sobriety. They dive into how, during active addiction, many of us deflect responsibility onto external factors like work stress or personal relationships. But true recovery starts with owning our actions and choices. Rev. Michelle opens up about her own journey, sharing how facing her mistakes head-on was both challenging and liberating.
The hosts also discuss the balance between being self-reliant and seeking group support, emphasizing that while we must take charge of our own recovery, leaning on a community is equally vital. They offer practical advice on taking personal inventory and choosing how to respond to life's hurdles. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that the power to change lies within us, but we don't have to do it alone.
