Most people don't know what island they want, right? So the question isn't that there's an island out there for you. So it's not seeking out that one island, it's finding out what direction you even want to go, in some general direction, and the boat is tipping around.
Feeling the pressure to make a New Year's resolution? The Freedom Model for Addictions podcast offers a different perspective. Hosts Mark Scheeren and Michelle Dunbar argue that the traditional approach to resolutions often sets us up for failure. Instead of setting rigid goals, they suggest focusing on finding genuine direction and happiness in life.
This episode dives into why resolutions might not be the best way to spark change and what alternatives can lead to a more fulfilling journey of self-improvement. Mark and Michelle challenge the conventional wisdom around addiction recovery, debunking myths about the disease model and questioning the effectiveness of 12-step programs. They advocate for a method that prioritizes personal choice and responsibility, encouraging listeners to explore different paths to sobriety.
The discussion also covers practical tips on how to assess your happiness and make necessary shifts in your life, offering a refreshing take on how to approach the new year. Whether you're looking to break free from addictive behaviors or simply want to make meaningful changes in your life, this episode provides valuable insights and actionable advice. It's not just about quitting bad habits; it's about understanding what truly makes you happy and steering your life in that direction.
If you're tired of the same old resolutions that never stick, this episode might just be the inspiration you need to start the year off right.
