E277: Being Willing to Start is the Hardest Part (“The Work”)
Manage episode 478941056 series 2815261
I thought getting sober was the end of the story. I did it, I succeeded, now life will be amazing forever. But the parade never came. Instead, I started to get uncomfortable and notice patterns in my behavior that I didn’t like, and without alcohol around, I couldn’t unsee it. This is where a lot of people fall off. Their work begins to show up, it gets uncomfortable, and instead of facing it they talk themselves into how drinking is a good idea. In this episode, I’ll explain more about “the work”, my experience with it, and you’ll learn 3 ways you can get started facing your work.
What to listen to next:
E240: Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome
E267: Resources vs Support: Are You Setting Yourself Up for Success?
E245: Want to Stay Sober? You Need to Be Consistent
E248: You Can't Be Comfortable AND Stay Sober
E250: What Does it Mean to "Be Ready" to Get Sober
