Are you ready for a dose of real talk about transformation and recovery? This episode of the Relational Recovery Podcast dives into the messy, non-linear journey of personal change. Hosted by Wes Thompson and Austin Hill, this conversation is a goldmine for anyone in a helping role—be it a pastor, therapist, or AA leader. They break down the myth that change happens overnight and stress the importance of humility and grace in the process.
It's all about creating an environment where people can be honest about their struggles without fear of judgment. Wes and Austin highlight the toxic nature of perfectionism and the masks people wear to avoid rejection. They emphasise that true transformation requires honesty, both with ourselves and with others. Sharing your 'mess' with a trusted group can be incredibly liberating and is essential for growth.
The hosts also touch on the importance of having 'truth tellers' in your life—people who care enough to speak the truth in love. This episode is a must-listen if you're seeking genuine insights into the messy, yet beautiful process of transformation.
