“The only real currency one has is the currency of one's own truths.”
Imagine finding humor in the toughest moments of addiction recovery. That's exactly what Jeff and Chris manage to do in this episode of 'Since Right Now'. They dive headfirst into the messy but crucial topics of truth, shame, and ego. How do these elements play into the journey of getting sober? And why is honesty such a powerful tool in recovery? Jeff and Chris share their thoughts, experiences, and plenty of laughs along the way.
They don't shy away from discussing the heavy stuff—like the shame that accumulates during active addiction and how our egos can trip us up. But they do it with a light touch that makes even the hardest truths easier to digest. The conversation also weaves in the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, emphasizing how radical honesty can be a game-changer. One memorable takeaway from the episode is, 'The only real currency one has is the currency of one's own truths'.
If you're looking for a mix of humor, honesty, and heartfelt discussion, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on the road to recovery.
