Unpacking Emotional Sobriety: The True Self vs. The False Self
“If you want to find your true self, that's if you're beginning this process especially, but also throughout it at various times, it's the part of you that that hurts.”
What does it mean to truly understand yourself? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Emotional Sobriety', psychotherapists and best-selling authors Thom Rutledge and Dr. Allen Berger dive deep into the concepts of The True Self and The False Self. They explore how our early family experiences and unconscious decisions shape our self-perception and continue to influence us until we consciously address them.
The hosts shed light on the importance of sifting through our past to find our authentic selves, emphasizing the principle of prioritizing values over personalities for true success. This episode isn't just a discussion; it's a journey toward understanding emotional sobriety and its pivotal role in recovery. Whether you're on a personal path to sobriety or supporting someone who is, Thom and Dr. Berger offer valuable insights that resonate on many levels.
