How I’d Grow My Recovery If I Were Starting From Day One (Again)


Listen Later

If you're just starting your sobriety journey — or if you're circling back after a relapse — this is the blueprint I wish I had from Day One.
In this episode, I lay out exactly how I’d approach recovery if I were starting over again today. No fluff, no perfection, just the real-life strategies that actually work: structure, support, mindset, and clear goals.
You’ll learn how to stop overthinking your sobriety, start focusing on the right actions, and build a recovery lifestyle that actually fits your life. Because it’s not about doing everything — it’s about doing the right things consistently.
This isn’t about rules. It’s about results.
💬 You’ll Hear:
(1:45) Why early sobriety feels so overwhelming — and what to do instead
(7:18) The first 3 actions I’d take if I were starting over again today
(12:22) The biggest mistake people make in early sobriety
(18:00) How to build emotional strength from the very beginning
(24:40) Why daily structure is non-negotiable in sustainable recovery
🧠 Quote to Remember
“You don’t need to fix everything. You just need to take the next right step — and keep taking it.”
