Imagine a room full of people, each with a popsicle stick in hand, ready to share their journey of recovery. That's the unique format of the Recovered Podcast's 'Popsicle Sticks' episode. Hosted by Mark S. with co-hosts Danelle, Clyde, and Matt, this episode brings a fresh twist to traditional recovery meetings. In a popsicle stick meeting, participants randomly select a stick with a recovery topic written on it and share their thoughts and experiences.
It's like letting fate decide the conversation, which adds an element of surprise and spontaneity. Danelle kicks things off by discussing Step 10, highlighting how it has transformed her daily routine into one of reflection and honesty. She shares her journey from initially disliking this step to embracing it as a vital part of her sobriety toolkit.
Meanwhile, Matt opens up about the importance of service work in his recovery, describing how it helps him connect with others and find purpose. The episode is peppered with humour and personal anecdotes, making it relatable and engaging. Clyde's tale of a 'drinking dream' offers a humorous yet poignant reminder of the past struggles many in recovery face. Mark S.
rounds out the discussion by sharing his experience with surrendering control, a concept he initially struggled with but now sees as crucial to his ongoing sobriety. If you're curious about how these popsicle sticks guide heartfelt discussions and want to hear real stories from people who have walked the path of recovery, this episode is a must-listen. It’s not just about sharing stories; it's about finding hope and community in unexpected places.
