Finding Balance: Lisa's Journey with Control in Recovery
“You know, what I find is that these issues come up for me again and again and again, and I know that my higher power is trying to teach me to let go and turn the wheel over to god, and I keep taking control of it each and every time...”
Ever found yourself clinging to control, even when it hurts more than it helps? In this eye-opening episode of 'A Shotglass of Recovery', Lisa takes us through her ongoing battle with control issues. Reflecting on a journal entry from a year ago, she realizes she's still wrestling with the same challenges, but perhaps there's a bigger lesson at play here.
Lisa opens up about how her experiences with Al-Anon and her wife's disengagement from the program stirred up a whirlwind of anger, resentment, and bitterness. Yet, she remains committed to her recovery program, finding solace and sanity in its structure. This episode is a candid exploration of powerlessness, acceptance, and the ever-elusive quest for peace. If you're grappling with control in your own recovery journey, Lisa's story offers both a mirror and a guidepost.
Tune in for an honest conversation that might just help you find your own path to letting go.
