I think sober is the byproduct of working a quality recovery program.
What does it really mean to be sober? In this episode of the Sober.Coffee Podcast, hosts Mike and Glenn dive into this very question, challenging the traditional dictionary definition of sobriety. While 'sober' is often seen as merely abstaining from alcohol or drugs, Mike and Glenn argue that it's so much more. They believe that true sobriety is a journey, not a destination—a state of being characterized by mental, emotional, and spiritual balance.
Ever felt like just not drinking isn't enough? You're not alone. Mike and Glenn break down how simply being 'dry'—not using substances—can leave you feeling restless and unfulfilled. They share their personal experiences and insights from their own recovery journeys, highlighting the importance of actively working a quality recovery program. Throughout the episode, the hosts discuss how sobriety in AA circles comes with its own set of definitions and sayings, adding layers of meaning to the term.
They also delve into the crucial role that sponsors can play in guiding you through the ups and downs of recovery. And it's not just about staying away from alcohol; it's about finding passion and purpose in life, which they believe are key to maintaining long-term sobriety. Glenn sums it up perfectly: 'We’re on the sober path.
We’re not at the sober ski lodge; we haven’t arrived.' This episode is a heartfelt conversation that goes beyond the surface, offering practical advice and inspiration for anyone on their sober journey. Whether you're new to recovery or have been sober for years, this episode provides valuable perspectives to help you find balance and fulfillment. So grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and join Mike and Glenn as they redefine what it means to be truly sober.
