In this episode of In the Circle, we're honored to have Mark join us from Northern England, bringing a profound topic that touches the core of many recovery journeys: self-forgiveness and building genuine self-confidence. Mark inquires: How can I learn to forgive myself and be confident in my self-worth? For those of us in recovery, particularly during the early stages, the act of forgiving ourselves can seem monumental. This inability to forgive often leaves us trapped in a cycle of persistent low self-esteem. Understanding and resolving these feelings is a crucial step on the path to recovery. It's an essential conversation for anyone struggling with guilt or shame and for those seeking insight into their journey towards healing.  Tommy discusses How can I forgive myself?Finding connection and love within yourself“Borrowing” confidence from those who love youThe frequency of gambling addictionLiving life from the inside, out Looking for a way to deepen your recovery journey and meet others in the Recovery 2.0 community?
