🌟 This Week: Bloviating, Bowling, & A Bookstore 🌟This week on Real World Recovery, Mitchell opens up about the intense pressure he’s been feeling at school and how pushing too hard—especially when exhausted and overwhelmed—can sometimes backfire. We explore how unrealistic expectations and anxiety can fuel a cycle that ultimately makes it harder to succeed, and why sometimes the best thing we can do is take a break, rest, and reset.Brett shares stories from his last week in sober bowling league and a one-of-a-kind experience he had in an airport bookstore that led to some unexpected reflection.This is a lighter, more conversational episode with some laughs, some honesty, and a reminder that recovery includes knowing when to give yourself grace.🧠 Stress, sleep, and self-awareness🎳 Bowling and building community📚 Lessons from an unlikely placeJoin us for another honest and entertaining conversation about real life in recovery.🔗 Join Our Community:👉 Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RealWorldRecovery👉 Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RealWorldRecoveryMedia👉 Join our Discord server: https://discord.gg/2Z3xp4C66J🌐 Connect With Us:Website: https://www.realworldrecovery.netInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/recoveryrealworld/Special thanks to Jaimie Doering & Vivray LLC for the use of the live audio recording of the Clyde Stubblefield Band's performance at the High Noon Saloon in Madison, WI from May 2007.
