Curious about how others navigate their sobriety journey? This instalment of *Recover Your Soul: A Spiritual Path to a Happy and Healthy Life* gives you a behind‑the‑scenes look at how the show itself has grown out of one woman’s determination to heal. Rev. Rachel Harrison shares how, two years into sobriety, she started recording raw voice memos on her phone in May 2020, simply because she "just had to share what was happening" inside her.
Grounded in AA and Al‑Anon, Tibetan Buddhism, Unity church teachings, and a long battle with codependency and people‑pleasing, she began talking honestly about spiritual principles she’d known for years but hadn’t fully lived.
She recalls that the eighth episode, where she talked about the seven detachments in Al‑Anon and how she applied them with her adult children struggling with addiction and with her husband, "was in that, there was a community that was formed." From that point, Recover Your Soul grew into a thriving space for people wanting spiritual support in recovery and in everyday life.
Rachel explains a big practical change: after years of releasing two episodes every week across the main podcast and the Bonus Podcast, she’s shifting to a new rhythm. You’ll now get one fresh episode each Monday, alternating between the main feed and the Bonus Podcast, freeing her to better support the growing community while still offering regular content.
With more than 600 episodes in the archive charting "so much learning, growing, shifting, changing, awakening, healing," you’re invited to dip back into earlier seasons to hear how her understanding of letting go of control, detaching with love, and remembering wholeness has evolved over time. If you’re looking for spiritual tools, honest recovery talk, and a long‑running library of lived experience, this episode is a gentle nudge to find a rhythm of listening that truly supports you.
