What makes a recovery story truly inspiring? In episode #91 of The Gathering With Roger B., titled "Lay Down Your Burden," Roger B. shares a heartfelt narrative about the burdens we all carry and how to lay them down. Drawing inspiration from a scene in the movie 'The Legend of Bagger Vance,' Roger discusses how our beliefs shape our reality and often keep us stuck in patterns of self-reliance and isolation.
He reflects on personal experiences, like a childhood humiliation, to illustrate how seemingly small events can become significant burdens if not addressed. Roger, who has been sober since 1978, highlights the importance of surrendering to a higher power and re-evaluating long-held beliefs. Through humour and candid storytelling, he challenges listeners to question their perceptions and consider new perspectives. Roger's engaging style makes complex concepts relatable, as he encourages embracing change and finding hope in the darkest times.

If you've ever felt weighed down by past experiences or current challenges, this episode might just offer the perspective shift you need. What burdens are you ready to lay down today?
