In this episode, Christina discusses the importance of curiosity as a foundation for life and recovery. Curiosity encourages self-discovery, building awareness, and learning new coping strategies. It also helps explore values and goals, navigate setbacks, and engage in other people's experiences. By being curious, we can gain insight into our patterns and motivations, and find motivation to stay committed to our recovery journey.
