The Biggest Lie We Tell Ourselves: Nelson H. on Finding Time for Sobriety

Meetings, in that analogy, are the timeout and it can be quite valuable
Ever find yourself drowning in a sea of tasks, convinced that you simply don't have a spare moment for anything else? Nelson H., the engaging host of 'LOL Sober', knows this feeling all too well. In this episode, he shares a candid story about a day filled with family activities, mounting emails, and an ever-growing to-do list.
By the time evening rolled around, Nelson was frazzled and irritable, wrestling with the familiar thought: 'I need a meeting, but I'm too busy'. Sound familiar? It's a common struggle for many in recovery, the battle between urgent tasks and the crucial need for self-care. Nelson dives into this internal conflict, urging listeners to question that nagging voice that insists there's no time for meetings.
Could it be that making time for these moments of connection and reflection might actually make us more productive and peaceful in the long run? Through his personal anecdotes and practical advice, Nelson highlights the importance of step work and the power of admitting when we're wrong. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that taking a timeout isn't just a luxury—it's a necessity for maintaining mental health and sobriety.
Tune in for a relatable and insightful discussion that might just change how you prioritize your time.
