Steve and Matt explore why fellowship is a critical "linchpin" in long-term recovery. They share personal stories about how connections with other sober individuals provide essential feedback, guidance, and support when facing life's challenges, like family issues and loss. Steve and Matt discuss how fellowship complements step work, strategies for newcomers who struggle to connect, and why even long-timers need their "pack" to stay sober. Its a vulnerable episode, as they all are and they reveal that nobody has "perfect recovery" and how reaching out to others, whether through meetings, service work, or simple check-ins and how that creates the safety net that makes sobriety possible. Looking to strengthen your recovery community feel isolated on your journey? You'll find a lot of strength from this episode.
