I typically record myself when I share in meetings so I can listen back and see how things have changed - how my perspective has changed and how I\\u2019ve grown as a person. I\\u2019ve never considered sharing these recordings on the podcast until a fellow in recovery suggested the idea to me and I thought, why not? This week\\u2019s episode 191 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast is a recorded sharing from a meeting and it\\u2019s my ACA story about how I came out of denial.\\xa0

In this episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I\\u2019m doing something a bit different and sharing a recording I took from an actual ACA (Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families) meeting where I share my story of coming out of denial and how recovery shifted literally every aspect of my life.\\xa0

Some of the talking points I go over in this episode include:

• How I approach situations in my relationships now compared to how I handled them in the past.\\xa0
• The concept of \\u201cinfo, not ammo\\u201d that changed my perspective on how I interpret and process the things I uncover in my self-awareness journey.\\xa0
• What I believe are the greatest gifts that recovery has given me.\\xa0
• Some of the things I can do now that I was never able to do before coming out of denial and setting healthy boundaries.\\xa0

The biggest paradigm shift for me in recovery was coming out of a victim mentality. Before I could even begin to get myself out of it, I had to get out of the denial that I was participating in this mentality so that I could begin seeing the world through a different lens. Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on living a more whole life and to hear even more about the points outlined above.
