Facing Failure: Damon Frank and Kristina Dennis on Conquering Fear in Recovery

Everybody's fallible, everybody makes mistakes, and if you have fear of failure, it is something that you have to get over in your sobriety.
What happens when the fear of failure threatens your journey to sobriety? Damon Frank and Kristina Dennis tackle this pressing issue on The Recovered Life Show. They dive into how this fear, often manifesting as imposter syndrome, can be particularly challenging for those in recovery. Imagine trying to rebuild your life while constantly feeling like a fraud. It's a common struggle, but Damon and Kristina share their personal battles with it and how they've managed to push through.
The episode also explores the impact of our hyper-connected world on this fear. With everyone's successes and failures more visible than ever, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. But Damon and Kristina argue that embracing imperfection is crucial. They believe that being open about your struggles makes you more relatable and inspiring.
You'll also hear about practical techniques to overcome this fear, such as 'acting as if'—a strategy where you behave as though you already possess the qualities you aspire to have. Another tip is creating a 'new you', focusing on the person you want to become rather than the person you fear you are. Community plays a significant role in this process. Damon and Kristina stress the importance of connecting with others who are also on the path to recovery.
They encourage listeners to join the Recovered Life Network for support and shared experiences. As Damon puts it, 'Everybody's fallible, everybody makes mistakes, and if you have fear of failure, it is something that you have to get over in your sobriety'. This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone struggling with the fear of failure while trying to live their best-recovered life.
