In this episode, we dive into overcoming the stigma surrounding addiction and building lasting confidence in sobriety. We explore real-world experiences, the impact of societal norms, and practical strategies to break negative stereotypes and embrace a confident, sober life.
Key Points:
Confronting Stigma:
Hosts Lane Kennedy and Tamar Medford discuss the internal and external stigmas associated with addiction and how open conversations can help dismantle these barriers.
Building Confidence:
The episode covers techniques for developing self-assurance in sobriety, including establishing new routines and habits that reinforce positive behaviors.
Creating a GID List:
Lane introduces the concept of a "Get It Done" list, a tool for setting and achieving small daily goals to build momentum and confidence.
