71. Navigating the Unknown: Sean's Quest for Healing

Hey there, it's your host Big Panda, and welcome back to another powerful episode of our podcast! Today, I had the privilege of sitting down with my buddy Sean, a fellow member of our recovery home group. We dove deep into his journey – from stepping into the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous to confronting his struggles with sexual addiction. Sean opens up about the lifeline that is S fellowship, revealing how it's been an anchor throughout his recovery journey. We get real about vulnerability and honesty, the backbone of our S meetings. And let's not forget about spirituality – it's been Sean's secret weapon in his healing process. But here's the kicker – recovery isn't a one-size-fits-all deal. Sean and I hash out the importance of carving out our own paths and owning our autonomy. Plus, we shine a light on how childhood trauma can creep into our lives and lead us down dark paths. We cover a ton in this chat – healthy relationships, navigating the dating scene while staying true to our recovery, and even tackling the big fears around sex and rejection. And trust me, we didn't shy away from the heavy stuff – healing from trauma, building intimacy, and staying connected, it's all in here. So grab your favorite beverage, get cozy, and join us on this journey of recovery and connection. Oh, and stick around till the end for a heartfelt closing prayer: 'May I Be Loving in This Moment.' Here's what you'll take away: S fellowship isn't just a group – it's a lifeline, offering a safe space for real talk and healing. Spirituality isn't just for monks – it's a powerful tool in our recovery toolbox, each of us forging our own unique connection with a higher power. Recovery isn't a cookie-cutter process – it's about owning your journey and finding what works for you. Childhood trauma can cast a long shadow, but facing it head-on is key to finding the light at the end of the tunnel. So hit that play button, and let's dive into the good stuff!" Keep coming back.
