Curious about how others navigate their sobriety journey? This episode of Encouragementology, hosted by the insightful Kendell Boysen, tackles the subtle yet significant difference between 'giving in' and 'giving up.' Boysen explores the messy middle ground where real growth happens, offering listeners a fresh perspective on adjusting their approach without abandoning their goals. With light-hearted anecdotes and engaging questions, she challenges listeners to rethink their all-or-nothing mindset. Have you ever felt stuck between pushing harder and walking away?
Boysen's gentle wisdom suggests that modifying your approach is not failure but a step towards progress. Through relatable stories and practical advice, this episode encourages you to embrace the middle space, where small adjustments can lead to big changes. Discover how understanding your motivation style and recognising when to adjust your sails can reignite your passion and keep you moving forward. The journey to sobriety, like any long-term goal, isn't a straight path but a series of adjustments and reflections.
By shifting focus from perfection to progress, you might just find the magic in the journey again. So, next time you're faced with a decision, remember: it's not about giving up; it's about giving in and moving forward with intention.
