Embracing Vulnerability: Marilyn Davis on Recovery's True Path
“If we do not make ourselves vulnerable and say I need help, it's very, very difficult to recover on our own right.”
Ever thought that being vulnerable could be your greatest strength? In this enlightening episode of 'Spirit of Recovery', hosts Rev. Dan Beckett and Rev. Michelle Vargas sit down with Marilyn Davis, a recovery curriculum author with a wealth of personal experience. Marilyn opens up about how letting go of the need for perfection has been crucial in her own journey through addiction and recovery.
She argues that the ironclad defenses we build to protect ourselves can actually hinder our growth and healing. Instead, embracing our vulnerabilities and seeking support from our communities can pave the way for genuine progress. Marilyn also delves into how writing has played a pivotal role in her recovery, helping her validate her progress and connect with others who are on similar paths.
This episode is a heartfelt exploration of what it truly means to recover, making it a must-listen for anyone on the journey to sobriety or supporting someone who is.
