In this episode of 'Sober The Podcast,' host Bradley Saxon is joined by Tori, CJ Carlton, and Steven Sanders as they delve into a crucial aspect of recovery—understanding sex and its implications. The discussion centers around step 4 of the Alcoholics Anonymous program, focusing on personal inventory and self-awareness, particularly regarding sex conduct. The hosts emphasize that sex, often seen as a taboo subject, is not inherently negative.
Instead, it's a natural part of life, created with purpose and pleasure within certain boundaries. However, it's acknowledged that due to human nature and disconnection from spiritual principles, many face challenges in this area. The episode explores how individuals can use the 12-step program to address these issues, looking beyond the symptoms of addiction to its root causes. A significant part of the conversation is dedicated to the importance of understanding one's patterns and behaviors through a thorough personal inventory.
The hosts discuss how selfishness and self-centeredness can manifest in relationships, often leading to heartache and broken relationships. By working through these issues, individuals can begin to establish healthier relationship patterns. The episode also touches upon the spiritual aspect of recovery, highlighting the need for guidance and strength from a higher power to overcome personal weaknesses. By setting boundaries and adhering to spiritual principles, individuals can build better relationships and improve their emotional health.
Overall, the episode serves as a guide for listeners seeking to navigate the complexities of sex in recovery, offering insights into self-improvement, spiritual growth, and the importance of maintaining healthy relationships.
