The Highest Form Of Intimacy
Truth takes courage.
Truth takes strength.
Truth takes acceptance.
In recovery, most people know the saying, "you're only as sick as your secrets" and it's true.
Addiction is a disease of disconnection.
Connection comes from building bonds with someone.
How do you begin to get close to someone?
By being honest with them - telling them the truth.
Lies will only push those you care about away.
In Knights & Warriors, your ability to be honest with yourself, your coaches, and your partner are crucial to success.
If you can't be honest with yourself right now, take this Recovery Opportunity to ask yourself "what am I scared of by telling/admitting the truth?"
If you didn't have anything planned to do today for your individual recovery, do this 5-15 minute journal reflection and see what comes from it.
You never know, you might have the epiphany you needed to take the action necessary to begin changing the results you're getting right now.
If you do the Recovery Opportunity and are open to sharing, I'd love to hear back from you, Reader, by hitting reply.
Continuing to be of service,
Savvy Esposito

How does this relate to recovery? Here's how.... Can you: Distinguish between a NEED...
If you've been in recovery for a bit, you've most likely come across the 90-day challenge or have seen other coaches or therapists mention 90 days. What is so special about 90 days and is that all it takes? There is truth that it takes about 90 days to change a habit - i.e. beginning a workout routine, waking up at a certain time in the morning, eating healthier, and yes, quitting porn and masturbation. However, 90 days is just the beginning. Being able to be clean for 90 days sets you up to...
I 100% believe that recovery is possible for anyone who truly wants to recover. I also know from experience that when someone who wants recovery won't do "the thing" they need to do to recover, recovery halts. "The Thing" can look different depending on your history, addiction trajectory, and current situation. The Most Common Blocks (with Recovery Opportunities because I'm feeling extra generous!) Denial When one or both partners are in denial about something that will block progress....
