I believe that the three key components to any recovery program- I don't care what it is like- smart recovery, dharma recovery, women for sobriety, whatever it is, that you need to have a mentor, you need to have a support group and that there needs to be some sort of spiritual aspect.
Ever wondered if there's more to recovery than just the 12-step program? In this episode of the 'Recovery Changes Everything Podcast', Dr. KJ Foster and her guest take you on a journey through various addiction recovery programs. They dive into the traditional 12-step method, weighing its strengths and limitations, and introduce alternative approaches like SMART Recovery, Dharma Recovery, and Women for Sobriety.
This episode doesn't shy away from discussing the spiritual aspects of recovery, but also critically examines where these programs might fall short. Dr. Foster's guest shares candid personal experiences, shedding light on the role of ego and the transformative power of mentorship and support groups. They also tackle the unique challenges women face in traditional recovery settings and address the stigma that often surrounds addiction and recovery.
Whether you're new to recovery or looking for fresh perspectives, this episode offers a compassionate and insightful look at various paths to sobriety.
