Show Notes

Thom, Joe, and Patrick (with a late episode appearance by Allen, fresh off his somatic therapy workshop) discuss how our individual conceptions of rightness and wrongness intersect with our recoveries. How can they enhance or detract from our relationships? And as always, how can we expand our emotional sobriety within these value markers?

 

Check out Joe's latest Rebellion Dogs episode for more on this and a look ahead to recovery in the new year:
