"Change comes from within, ladies and gentlemen."
How do people manage the constant change that comes with recovery? In this episode of 'At The CCC', hosts Anthony and LouiLou are joined by Michael Marcuselli to discuss the inevitable shifts that occur during the recovery process. Broadcasting from the heart of San Francisco at The Castro Country Club, a welcoming space for the queer recovery community, they explore how change is not just unavoidable but essential for growth.
Michael, who shares his own journey of recovery from alcohol and crystal meth, brings a unique perspective to the table. The conversation is light-hearted yet deeply meaningful, touching on personal anecdotes and broader themes of acceptance and courage. They talk about the challenges of letting go of old habits and relationships that no longer serve you, and how embracing change can lead to personal growth.
The hosts highlight the importance of creating structure in early recovery and how small changes, like making your bed every day, can have a profound impact. They also discuss the need for courage in facing fear and how sometimes, change requires us to confront our own shortcomings. The episode is sprinkled with humour and candid exchanges, making it an engaging listen. It’s a reminder that while change may be uncomfortable, it is also an opportunity for transformation.
So, are you ready to embrace change in your recovery journey?
