Imagine moving From Junkie to Judge and the depth of work and clarity it took for Mary Beth O'Connor to achieve this goal. Today, learn what happened after she decided to get clean and sober, while her best friend and sister did not. How did she handle those feelings of despair and terror and manage the racing thoughts: "I got sober. Why can't you?" Mary Beth sits down today with KL Wells to discuss the multiple pathways in recovery from the perspective of an addict and a loved one. They speak on building an openness to change, permitting ourselves to pick up new tools when the old ones don't work. They argue what works for you at one point in your recovery, may not be helpful later. If you need help navigating a loved one's recovery that isn't on your timeline and need a fresh perspective to help you manage your thoughts and feelings as they find their path, this episode is just for you!
