Latest / Emotional Sobriety: The Next Step in Recovery
Acorn to Oak Tree with Herb K.

It’s a byproduct of our relationships with a life of meaning and purpose, as well as our contributions to humanity.

Allen underlines the fact that emotional sobriety isn’t something we arrive at passively. We need to foreground it to bring it into being.
