E149: Building Trust in Recovery

Join us for an eye-opening episode as we delve into the intricacies of trust, vulnerability, and the journey to recovery. Discover the story of a friend who faced a trust issue that might seem small on the surface but carries profound lessons.

We explore the question: What drives someone to betray trust, and what does it reveal about their own insecurities? We share insights into navigating trust in business and personal relationships, shedding light on how vulnerability plays a crucial role.

Our discussion takes us back to our drinking days and active addiction, where trust issues often ran deep. We reveal how our past struggles with deception and self-sufficiency impacted our ability to trust others.

But recovery is all about growth, and we've come a long way. We share how working with fellow alcoholics has helped us build trust and resilience. The anonymity and traditions in recovery provide guardrails for navigating trust while still opening ourselves up to healing connections.

Don't miss this thought-provoking episode that encourages you to embrace vulnerability, take risks, and ultimately find trust in yourself and others. Tune in and join the conversation on trust and recovery!
