In this episode, I sit down with Ben and Eric to talk about one of the most powerful—and often misunderstood—parts of getting clean and sober: the amends process. We break down why making amends is such a crucial part of recovery, how it helps us repair the damage we've done, and what it actually looks like when done the right way.
But we also talk about the flip side—why making amends too early can do more harm than good. A lot of people want to rush into it with two weeks sober, thinking it'll fix everything, but the truth is, timing matters. There's a reason the amends process comes after working the previous steps.
Whether you're new to recovery or have been walking this path for a while, this episode is full of real insight on what to do—and what not to do—when it comes to repairing relationships and moving forward in your sobriety.
