Finding Acceptance: Lynn and Vikki's Journey Through Sobriety
“Once we get to acceptance, once we understand that, however, we try to manipulate the situation, it's still not going to change what's going to happen, because it's just going to happen.”
Ever wondered how to truly embrace acceptance in your recovery journey? In this episode of 'Telling On Ourselves', hosts Lynn and Vikki dive deep into what it takes to reach acceptance and the magic it can bring to sobriety. They start off with some light-hearted banter, poking fun at the challenges of promoting their podcast. But soon, they shift gears to tackle the more serious topic of acceptance in recovery.
Lynn and Vikki open up about their personal struggles with letting go of control and learning to live in the present, even when it's uncomfortable. They highlight the importance of awareness, helping listeners recognize thought patterns that might be holding them back. One of their key suggestions? Get out of your head by talking to a supportive friend or community member. The duo emphasizes the power of community, sharing how it helps them feel seen and heard.
They encourage listeners to embrace discomfort and new experiences in sobriety, reminding everyone that growth often comes from stepping outside their comfort zones. As Lynn puts it, 'As long as I'm in action, it reminds me of Carmen at the Palatine club used to always say: relentless forward motion'. This episode is packed with practical advice and insights, all delivered with a healthy dose of humor and camaraderie.
If you're on a recovery journey, Lynn and Vikki's discussion on acceptance offers valuable tools and a sense of community support.
