48 | Fourth Step Inventory - Does the asset inventory make you uncomfortable? Let's talk about confidence in recovery

In this inspiring episode of Sobriety Checkpoint, we welcome you to a journey of self-discovery and affirmation with your host, Felicia Hermle. Today, she delves into the transformative practice of crafting a positive inventory, drawing wisdom from Kevin Griffin's "One Breath at a Time," a book that integrates Buddhism with the twelve steps.  Felicia candidly discusses the challenge of recognizing our virtues amidst the shadow of self-criticism—a hurdle that many Westerners face, yet one that is less common in other cultures. She shares personal anecdotes, highlighting the importance of owning one's achievements and the power of positive self-affirmation. Listen as Felicia encourages us to shift our perspective from a place of lack to one of inherent worthiness, empowering us to build upon our goodness rather than our perceived shortcomings. This episode is not just about self-improvement; it's a call to embrace our authentic selves, to acknowledge our love, confidence, and creativity. Felicia extends an invitation to engage in this enlightening exercise by penning down your own 'I am' statements or seeking affirmations from those who see your light. She also opens up about her recent foray into coaching, sharing the joy and growth that come from guiding others toward their true selves. Join us for a soul-stirring session that promises to leave you feeling more connected to your inner strengths and ready to approach life with renewed confidence. Remember, this is a great show, and you are a part of its greatness.

Until then, stay strong, embrace grace, and we'll see you at your next Sobriety Checkpoint. **It’s time for that desperately sought after solo Target run.. Grab your keys and let’s go for a drive...
