'I'm Doing the Best I Can!'
When you look back on your day, what are the parts you remember? Do you see the whole picture and remember the small wins you had that made you smile, or do you focus in on the one negative passing comment that your boss made? As humans having a bias towards the negative has kept us safe as we have evolved into the modern world, but ensuring we're seeing the bigger picture and practicing compassion for ourselves and others is far from a fluffy practice, it has the power to change our worlds. Wherever you are in your journey (be it alcohol-free or otherwise) this is a powerful piece of the puzzle. Come and see how you really are doing the best you can in this week's episode (even if you feel like you're not)!
