Episode #77 – Tuesday The Fix: Significance of Others
“Everybody has goals and desires that are different, but we have the same needs.”
The desire to feel significant or important is one of the most sought after human needs “Let’s talk about one of the most sought after human needs: The need for significance. There’s not a person alive on the planet who doesn’t want to feel important or needed. Why is feeling special such a compelling force? Why does feeling insignificant make us feel so devastated? Once you understand why you’re driven to feel significant to those around you, you can better interpret your own actions and use this desire to help you work toward your goals”. – Tony Robbins https://www.tonyrobbins.com/personal-growth/need-for-significance/

How do others play a vital role in this need?
They provide an avenue to demonstrate my caring
Validate my feelings by Reciprocating my regard toward them
Help me complete or fulfill my social need(s)
Help me go through challenges in my life
Someone to celebrate the victories and accomplishment
Provide measurement for my personal progress
Sharpen my saw by challenging me
Present me new ideas
Episode #76 – Friday The Checkup: Loyalty
Loyalty is foundational to our personal recovery initially and moving forward. Loyalty is considered to be one of the five core values of who we are as a person. Loyalty is a gateway to our internal transformation that allows us to become the person we have always wanted to become. Without loyalty, we are missing a key ingredient to the change that needs to occur. We become increasingly loyal one step at a time. Loyalty leads to so many things in our life that have eluded us when we were not loyal.

“This above all: to thine own self be true. And it must follow, as night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.” ~William Shakespeare
We can trust ourselves so we learn to trust others
We become predictable
We become more approachable by those we want to approach us
We develop a like for who we are
We deepen our regard toward others
We rest better
We enjoy life without waiting for the other shoe to drop
We spend more time appreciating the important things in life because we set aside things that aren’t important
Episode #75 – Tuesday The Fix: The Cornerstone of Faith
Faith is so vital to our recovery. Without faith, we will never be free of the bondage that our addiction gripped us with for so many years. We lost so much because our faith was weak and for many of us became non-existent. I hope this podcast and the content below challenge, inspire and grows in ways you have been hoping for.

Episode #74 – Friday The Checkup: The Power of the Celebration
This podcast is designed to encourage you through uncovering and enlarging your celebration for the recovery and the wellness you have been given. Regardless of our length of recovery, we have something to celebrate. If for no other reason, we can celebrate that today it is not necessary for us to die. As we continue to grow in our recovery the things that we are being restored to and the things that are being restored to gives us even more reason to celebrate. Find out what is most important to you in terms of what you can celebrate and ultimately find the power that it lends you as part of that celebration. I am sure it won’t take you long to understand the reasons that you have to celebrate. Please continue to comment, share, and subscribe to this podcast.

Episode #73 – Tuesday The Fix: Things We Discover Along The Way
“Things We Discover Along The Way”
This podcast is designed to open up our vision so we can take in all things to evaluate. There is so much around us to learn from. From music to movies, to audio instruction, nature, and written word. Etc. Whether or not a revelation is all around us is already been decided by God. What we do with it depends on us. I have been so blessed to learn and to teach from the many messages I receive. This podcast explores many of those things while focusing on one I saw this last weekend. I have added it down below. Also, please go to patreon.com/recoveryguy to further support Recovery Guy Podcast and our Recovery Mission.
“Four things you can’t recover from”
The Stone after the throw
The Word after’s it said
The Occasion after it’s missed
The Time after it’s gone
Episode #72 – Friday The Checkup: Healing Hurts
Hello and welcome to Recovery Guy Podcast. I really appreciate you joining us today. Today’s topic is “healing hurts“. So often we go through life and we are hoping to heal past hurts that we have created for ourselves on a personal level and hurts we caused others on an inner personal level. Both of these needs to be addressed and healing hurts will likely be a part of our journey for the rest of our lives. It does not mean that we don’t overcome challenges or the pain/hurt that healing can cause, I just believe that there’s always more healing that can be done. I give examples in this podcast. I share a conversation that I had with my daughter Carol. I am grateful for the insight that she gave me regarding our healing journey together. I hope this podcast encourages you and I hope that you join us in our recovery movement as we look to get well one day at a time for the rest of our lives. Please go to Patreon.com/RecoveryGuy and see how you can further support our mission.
Episode #71 – Tuesday The Fix: A visit with Steve M
Welcome to Recovery Guy Podcast. This episode is called “A visit with Steve M”. Steve was one of those amazing people who was already living the road to recovery when I arrived at Alcoholics Anonymous back in 1986. Not only was Steve extremely instrumental in my personal recovery, but to this day I still am encouraged by his love and care he provided for me early on. Steve decided to devote his entire life to serving others and it is no surprise to this day he is still living the recovered life. I hope you enjoy listening to Steve as much as I did spending time with him. I can honestly say that God used him to help encourage me in my early days of recovery. Seeing him, still involved in service, encourages me in my later years as well.
