Men: Take Charge of Your Recovery Journey
Episode Overview
Take ownership of your clean date; protect it with your life. Relapse is part of addiction, not recovery. Your journey is unique; find what works for you. Take responsibility for your past; don't let it hold your future hostage. Partner with a higher power to co-create your purposeful life.
It's not in my nature to be powerless, and I can assure you, my brother, it's not in yours either.
How do individuals turn their lives around after addiction? In this episode, Mark Mascolo challenges men in recovery to take ownership of four crucial aspects of their lives: their clean date, their journey, their past, and their future. Mark emphasises the importance of taking personal responsibility, asserting that recovery is a platform for personal, professional, and spiritual growth. He passionately argues that relapse isn't a part of recovery but rather a sign of addiction winning.
Mark shares his own experiences, including overcoming divorce, bankruptcy, and cancer, to illustrate resilience and the power of standing back up after life's adversities. He encourages listeners to guard their clean date with their lives and to embrace the quest for recovery as an arduous but rewarding journey. With a touch of humour and heartfelt sincerity, Mark inspires men to partner with a higher power to co-create the life they were meant to live.
So, what are you settling for that it's time to quit settling for? Dive into this empowering session and discover how taking ownership can transform your recovery and your life.
