When we take the focus off the addicted person and trying to figure out if they're being honest or not, and we keep the focus on ourselves, we live much happier and serene lives.
Ever wondered if trust is as crucial as we make it out to be? In this episode of 'Grace Through Recovery', Andrea Williams, a licensed professional counselor and someone in long-term recovery, flips the script on our traditional views of trust. Andrea argues that trust isn't something we get from others but an emotion we create within ourselves.
She dives into why building trust with yourself can be far more empowering than trying to rebuild trust with someone struggling with addiction. Addiction often leaves families feeling isolated and betrayed, but Andrea's fresh perspective encourages listeners to shift their focus inward. She suggests that by detaching from conflict and prioritizing self-care, we can lead happier, more serene lives.
If you're grappling with the emotional toll of addiction in your family, this episode offers a unique take on how to reclaim your peace and well-being. Tune in to hear Andrea's thought-provoking insights and start focusing on what truly matters—your own needs and happiness.
