"Our job is simple: carry the message to the alcoholic who still suffers."
What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? In this engaging episode of the RAW Recovery Podcast, Dion explores the core purpose of recovery, which is to carry the message to those who still suffer. Forget about the ego and the chase for likes and followers; the focus is on helping others find their path to sobriety. Dion emphasises that the miracle of recovery happens when we remember our true purpose and step away from self-promotion.
The episode touches on the importance of community and fellowship in recovery, while also addressing the pitfalls of modern recovery trends like mocktails, which Dion argues can lead to triggers and relapse. He shares his candid thoughts on the necessity of honesty and hope, rather than preaching, in carrying the message effectively. Dion also delves into the differences between alcohol and drug addiction, stressing that while both require support, they are not the same journey.
He discusses how crucial it is to direct people to the right resources and communities tailored to their specific struggles. With humour and a touch of raw honesty, Dion reminds listeners that recovery is serious business but doesn't have to be devoid of laughter. By keeping the purpose clear, everything else falls into place, making it easier to help those in need. So, how do you stay true to your primary purpose in recovery?
