Have you ever considered the deep-seated connection between gratitude and grief, especially in the light of overcoming addiction and cultivating sobriety? This episode explores this profound link through the eyes of our guest,  a therapist at Valiant Living, as he recounts his personal journey from addiction to recovery. His story encompasses a faith-based upbringing, the recognition of self-worth, and the importance of understanding and embracing one's past as key elements in his path to sobriety.

Dive into our raw and heartfelt conversation as we traverse the road of addiction, recovery, and self-discovery. Our guest's insight on practicing gratitude and grief not just as tools for recovery, but as pathways to deeper self-awareness and acceptance, is truly thought-provoking. Together, we also explore the concept of ho-oponopono, an ancient Hawaiian practice of forgiveness and relationship repair, underlining its potential as a healing tool in recovery.

Our discussion doesn't stop there; we delve into the critical role that a supportive community plays in aiding one's journey to sobriety. Hear our guest recount his experience of how his family's involvement and engagement became a pillar of strength throughout his recovery. As we wrap up this potent conversation, we reiterate the transformative power of forgiveness, gratitude, and community. Join us and learn how acknowledging your past, cultivating self-awareness, and fostering a supportive community can guide you on the road to finding your authentic self.

If you or someone you love is struggling with addiction, you don’t have to face it alone.

Valiant Living helps men and their families move from crisis to stability through clinically driven care, community, and hope.
