48: The Pre-Lapse Before the Re-Lapse

Addiction Recovery

Can success in recovery lead to complacency? In this episode, we explore the critical "pre-lapse" stage that often precedes relapse. Sharing my own experience of relapsing after 12 years of sobriety, I highlight the importance of staying engaged in recovery practices and maintaining integrity. We discuss how small daily actions can reinforce long-term goals and how spirituality—rooted in a belief in a higher power, not tied to any deity—can support sobriety.

We share insights on building a community of accountability and solution-focused support. This episode emphasizes the value of trust, consistency, and setting personal boundaries, inviting you to engage, share feedback, and be part of a supportive network. Let’s take life one day at a time, fostering connection and strength on the path to recovery.
