Saying Yes to Recovery: Embracing Shonda Rhimes' 'Year of Yes' in Episode 170

In my recovery, one of the things that I have learned is that it's okay to ask for help.
Ever wondered if saying 'yes' more often could change your life? Episode 170 of 'The Recovery Show' dives into this very idea, inspired by Shonda Rhimes' book, 'Year of Yes'. The hosts explore how embracing opportunities and stepping out of comfort zones can align with the principles of 12-step recovery. They reflect on their own journeys, discussing the delicate balance between saying 'yes' to new experiences and 'no' to maintain healthy boundaries.
One standout moment is when they talk about the power of truth-telling in recovery. The hosts share how the 12-step program has helped them see their true selves and speak honestly, supported by a loving higher power. This episode also touches on the importance of making amends and clearing the air with those they've hurt, freeing them from the weight of guilt. Another highlight is the discussion on self-care.
The hosts stress the need to look after oneself spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically. They share personal anecdotes about prioritizing self-care and how it has helped them maintain serenity and balance in their lives. Throughout the episode, they remind listeners that recovery is a journey filled with constant change and growth. They emphasize the value of support groups and connection in navigating life's ups and downs.
Episode 170 is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone seeking serenity and balance in their recovery journey. It's an inspiring listen that offers practical advice and heartfelt encouragement.
