    The Recovery Pod Ep. 123: Procrastinating Desperation
    Jul 9 2024
    When you feel yourself slipping in your recovery program, you have two choices: either continue down the path back towards self destruction and complacency, or identity the problem and get back to work! It’s so easy to slip into our old routines, and in this episode we talk about our own experiences with slipping in our programs, and what we do to get back on track. From meeting attendance dropping due to vibe shifts in the group, to working with sponsors and even maintaining our behaviors outside of addiction, we share our stories with vulnerability and honesty. Join us for our 123rd episode. Apologies for the lack of episodes, it’s summer and as you’ll hear here, we’ve been hella complacent. But we back 😎

    122: “Give From God or Take From the Devil”
    May 23 2024
    It’s our 4 year podcast anniversary!!! In this episode we kick it off talking about the energy of “taking” and how detrimental it can be for our recovery. Not only did we take drugs, but we took time, money and attention as well. This energy can keep us stunted in our growth in our recovery, and we also discuss some healthy solutions to this. We also deep dive into more biblical topics like how God and the devil play into these energies, and Ana gives us her best Taylor Swift impression. Steven references concepts by Brene Brown and Dr. Joe Dispenza that are key to shifting from a lower vibrational energy mindset, and we close with discussing how this has affected our relationship! Fun fun!! Thank you all for joining us in this wonderful journey and we truly appreciate everyone who listens ❤️

    Old timers. Taking each others inventory. Meeting etiquette. Program structure. So many ways we look at another’s way of living and create conflict within ourselves, our relationships and our fellowship because someone isn’t doing something the way we would. Join us as we discuss these things in length and ways we’ve found helpful to navigate through it successfully.

    119: Unconditional Love
    Feb 29 2024
    In this episode we talk A LOT about unconditional love - what it is, what it ISN’T, challenges in feeling it, ways of showing it, and using it as a tool to use with intent to get out of a funk. We talk about self love, boundaries, friendship and family, as well as intimate relationships and drama. We even talk about dealing with that pesky cashier that you can’t seem to help giving your serenity to. Join us for another episode of The Recovery Pod, and look forward to a new episode every Thursday! We’re making it a point to be consistent and build a relationship with our listeners. Thank you all for your continued support ❤️
