"The moment your name becomes a solution, you've won."
In this episode of Sober.Coffee, Mike and Glenn tackle the idea that who you surround yourself with can greatly impact your recovery journey. They argue that the people you spend time with can either be assets or liabilities in your life. Mike and Glenn share personal anecdotes about how their networks have transformed over the years, moving from circles of solitude to communities filled with supportive, like-minded individuals.
They suggest that the quality of your relationships can drive you towards the best possible outcomes, and that we become the sum of the people we choose to serve alongside. The duo dive into the notion that being part of a positive community is not just about what you can gain but also what you can give. Glenn recounts an eye-opening experience with a billionaire investor who taught him the value of giving without expecting anything in return.
This lesson has influenced how he interacts with others in his sobriety and business life, focusing on serving rather than taking. Mike and Glenn's discussion is peppered with humour and honesty as they explore how these principles apply to both personal and professional relationships. They emphasise the importance of choosing wisely when it comes to who you let into your inner circle. Are your current relationships helping or hindering your path to sobriety? It's a question worth pondering.
If you're curious about how your social network could be affecting your recovery, or if you're simply looking for some camaraderie and wisdom from those who've walked the sober path, this episode offers valuable insights. So grab a cup of coffee and consider whether your community is lifting you up or pulling you down.
