#131: Becoming Someone You Can Be Proud Of in Sobriety
In sobriety, we spend so much time trying to stay humble that we forget the importance of feeling proud of who we’re becoming.
In this episode, Tim explores how healthy pride — the kind built on honesty, consistency, and integrity — can help heal guilt, rebuild self-trust, and give real meaning to recovery. He shares personal stories about losing himself to false pride during addiction, and how quiet moments of growth in sobriety helped him finally rebuild respect for himself.
Because recovery isn’t just about staying sober — it’s about becoming someone you can be proud of again.
