#9: Why Shedding Our Old Identities Is Critical To Getting And Staying Sober

In this episode, I want to talk about how our identities based on our past is often holding us back from our greatest potential in recovery and life.  So much of our identity when we get sober is based on what we think we are not capable of achieving.  We start picking up limitations when we are young from people and experiences in life.  Maybe we are told we are not smart enough, not talented enough, are a troublemaker, or that we are never going to amount to anything.  Then as life goes on we find ways to strengthen that identity and even defend it sometimes to the point that we become addicted to our perceived limitations.  We will discuss here how to identify the old identities that our holding us back, how to break the behavior cycle that keeps is there, and how to step into our infinite potential.
