What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? Dive into the heartfelt journey of Dave F., a man from Flower Mound, Texas, as he shares his experiences with sobriety and the wisdom he's gathered over decades. Dave talks about the importance of 'bleeding on the tables,' a concept taught to him by his sponsor, Carl, which means being transparent and honest about one's struggles, regardless of how long they've been sober.
This episode touches on several key themes like the circle and triangle of sobriety, the priorities exercise, and the notion of having a family of choice versus a family of chance. Dave's anecdotes about his past, his growth, and the exercises he uses to maintain his sobriety offer listeners a blend of humour and sincerity. Whether you're new to recovery or have been on this path for years, Dave's insights are sure to resonate.
So, grab a pen if you're not driving, because you might want to jot down some of these gems! What are your priorities in life, and how do they align with your sobriety goals?
