Recovery equates to transforming your lifestyle, so it’s imperative to connect with a committed accountability partner or support group that has the experience and tools needed to guide you.  In this episode, Deena recalls the most impactful support she received during and post-treatment, serving as a reminder that you're never alone on your journey to recovery.    In this episode, you also hear:  Finding an appropriate accountability partner  Suggestions for working with a sponsor    Embracing what you feel and sharing it with others  Must-listen moments:   [00:04:47] An accountability partner can be whoever you feel like you trust and will keep you on that path.  [00:06:22] You want somebody strong that's lived your experience and can give you good sound advice and support.  [00:12:40] I think it's trying to understand where each other is, and being empathetic because I think if we don't communicate it, we assume other things and they're usually not true.    Thank you for listening.
