"Healthy recovery isn't something you can't wait to have go away; it's something you can't get enough of."
What drives someone to embrace change, especially when it seems as daunting as a mountain? Mark Beebe takes listeners on a candid exploration of why change is often seen as a problem. He reveals that while some thrive on it, most of us find change downright scary. Yet, it’s also necessary and can be incredibly freeing.
Beebe uses relatable analogies, like his mum’s fried chicken, to illustrate how change can shake us up, stretch us, and ultimately shape us into better versions of ourselves. He shares insights on the importance of aftercare in recovery, stressing that the real work begins once the initial treatment ends. The episode highlights the critical role of therapy and support groups in maintaining sobriety and emphasises that embracing change requires a willingness to be uncomfortable and to challenge oneself continuously.
Beebe also discusses the common misconception that recovery is a quick fix, urging those in recovery to seek out continuous learning and support. Listeners are left pondering their own willingness to change and what they are willing to defend about themselves. Are you ready to be shaken, stretched, and shaped? If you’re looking for a dose of motivation mixed with a bit of humour, this episode is your go-to guide for understanding the profound impact of embracing change in recovery.
