Show Notes: https://www.recoverywarriors.com/nancy-staycer What You'll Learn: • The two common styles that people use to connect to others that are largely ineffective • Why we often come up short when comparing ourselves to others • How the values of the 12 step model can be used in recovery • The power of accountability and connection in overcoming addiction At the age of 30, Nancy Staycer was faced with the decision to continue down a path of destruction from drugs or clean up her life. Moving across the country and attending an AA meeting is where she started. Nancy was soon to find that working through the 12 step model gave her the ability to have what she was looking for all along, connection and authenticity. Now 19 years sober, happily married and raising two children, Nancy is helping woman with eating disorders and co-occurring substance abuse learn how to connect to each other and themselves as the clinical director of Montecatini, an eating disorder treatment center in Southern California. From her personal and clinical experience she has found that discovering our inner beauty, spirit and soul is truly an inside job and has nothing to do with our outer appearance. Tune into this week's show to learn about the powerful role connection plays in recovery.
