Our heart should always be in servitude to our mind, because it's good, solid judgment that is going to lead you where you need to go.
Imagine being told to follow your heart when every instinct you have is skewed by addiction. That's the core of this episode of '2 Sober Chicks', where Julie and Lisa unpack why this common advice can be particularly harmful for those in recovery. With their signature blend of humor and raw honesty, they discuss how, for many alcoholics, following the heart often meant indulging in ego-driven decisions that led them astray.
They reflect on their own experiences, revealing how early recovery required a different kind of navigation—one that prioritizes sound judgment over fleeting emotions. The duo also dives into the importance of self-care and balancing it with the demands of sobriety. Through personal anecdotes and practical advice, Julie and Lisa offer a refreshing take on why sometimes, listening to your heart isn't the best route.
Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode provides valuable insights into making healthier choices.
