What does it mean to truly forgive and how can it transform your recovery journey? In this episode of the Sober.Coffee Podcast, hosts Mike and Glenn sit down with Keaton Douglass for the second part of their enlightening conversation about forgiveness as a pivotal element in overcoming addiction. Keaton, a theologian and leader of the iTHIRST initiative, shares her insights on how holding onto resentment can be as toxic as venom, slowly corroding one's path to healing.
The episode paints a vivid picture of how forgiveness isn't just about letting others off the hook but about freeing oneself from the burden of anger and hurt.
