The Way Out | A Sobriety and Recovery Podcast
Education:Self-Improvement
In this rendition of The Way Out I’m pleased to bring you my interview with Founder of Bellweather Executive Development Firm, author, podcaster, and person in long term Recovery Jim Frawley. Jim shares with us his journey to and through recovery to this point and his individual pathway which on the surface may appear to be unconventional in that Jim didn’t follow any particular pathway per se nor does Jim consider himself a member of any recovery organization or group. Despite these surface level differences to those who do follow a defined recovery pathway like the 12-Steps or SMART Recovery, as is so common among us who identify as persons in recovery, there’s far more that unites us in our shared experiences prior to Recovery and in our individual Recovery journeys. One overarching message that comes through Jim’s story is summed up in his favorite quote “It is hard to be satisfied with life, if you’re never satisfied with yourself.”. In other words, the journey starts with us and for Jim it was a process of becoming increasingly satisfied with himself so he could then create and sustain meaning and purpose in all facets of his life and ultimately experience the satisfaction of a sober life well lived so listen up.

Recovery literature (quit-lit) recommendation: This Is How by Augusten Burroughs -https://a.co/d/8xbaprG
Best pieces of Recovery advice: It's easier to have zero than just one. It is hard to be satisfied with life, if you’re never satisfied with yourself. Focus on what you can control.
Song that symbolizes Recovery to Jim: No Hard Feelings by The Avett Brothers -https://youtu.be/tFGs7HP15d4?si=_D4mnMl-smamrGxS
