In this episode, we are joined by Peter, Jessica, and John and we share about finding hope after addiction. We share how we maintain hope even when things get hard. You’ll hear us talk about looking back to see how far we’ve come, and looking forward to the future, being able to recognize the potential. We discuss how we gained hope from others’ stories, and how that inspires us to share our own. Hope is what keeps us going, even when we aren’t sure it’s worth it.
Hope means allowing others to show us that the hard work is worth it.
Other topics covered in this episode include:
- How community and connection influence hope
- Knowing when you’re ready to quit
- Taking time to reflect, to acknowledge how far you’ve come
- Listening to stories of people further along
- Sharing our own stories to give hope to those who are struggling
