No Alcohol Needed: The Podcast

E30: Ownership and Responsibility in Recovery


Listen Later

Getting honest with ourselves and taking ownership and responsibility for our actions is one of the hardest and most important parts of the recovery journey. In this episode, we are joined by Jason, Robbie, and Dave as we take a vulnerable dive into taking responsibility and taking action, to make the changes necessary to live a full and healthy life.  

Some of the concepts we cover include:

  • Acknowledging and owning that we have a drinking problem and taking action
  • Determining what is our responsibility and we need to let others own
  • Remembering why we chose to take action
  • Apologies in recovery
  • Taking responsibility for our mental health and emotions
  • Noticing when we blamed others for our drinking
  • Recognizing changes we need to make
  • Sharing the stories that bring us shame
  • The importance of community
  • Increasing meaningful connection in relationships
  • Self forgiveness
  • "Taking responsibility means taking an action."

    Robbie is 44 years old, from Rapid City, South Dakota and he's been sober 120+ days. He's a trail endurance athlete and running coach, and Robbie is also the host of the Golden Hour Adventures Podcast.

    Dave is 7 months sober from his over 20 year relationship with alcohol. He went to rehab on August 12th, 2022. His Rock Bottom didn’t look like losing everything or a long path of destruction, but it was his bottom. He has suffered from childhood trauma, and comes from a long line of addiction. Breaking the cycle and healing is his new goal. He hopes to inspire others, while sharing his daily story through social media.

    Jason is father of two boys and an experienced executive and entrepreneur. He is an active public speaker, philanthropist, and has held board of directors seats at various non-profits and educational institutions throughout New England.Jason’s recovery began on December 27, 2022 and included overcoming alcohol abuse as well as multiple mental/emotional health disgnoses. He continues to lean on his sober network and close friends for support while giving back to the community through hosting meetings and offering assistance where he can. Jason prides himself on authenticity and being true to himself.
