You're listening to the Pure Desire Podcast.

You're a safe place to find hope, healing, and freedom from sexual addiction, betrayal, and relationship issues.

Hey, hey, hey, I am your host, Trevor Windsor, and you're listening to episode 234 of the Pure Desire podcast.

Here joining me as always, my co-host, Nick Stumbo.

Syrup and coffee?

Why didn't I think of that?

So we're hoping, we're just hoping that our listeners have recently seen that movie

and know exactly what you're talking about.

Yes, there is a question of how many different podcast interests can I take from the same

movie? Yeah. Because I'd probably need to go back through, but I bet that's five or six now

from the movie Elf. And for sure, every time we get to Christmas, I do one from Elf. It is

for my family, kind of the inauguration of the Christmas season is watching that. But also I was

thinking about that quote because it is he's learning a new thing. Right. And today's episode,

I think is an opportunity just for us to share some things that we've seen and learned. And

maybe someone partway through go, why didn't I think of that? Because it's not necessarily revolutionary stuff.

It's just good ideas and good content and we promise it won't get you drunk.

Okay, hold on. I'm working. I'm working to get past that one.

Okay, let's just get in. So you and I, we just, just you and me, we just sat down.

There was no guess. We don't need a guess. We can carry a podcast. But we sat down to review 2021 and really

look for, look forward into 2022. What can health and recovery look like? Yeah. And I think it's important

for all of us to do this in life, in recovery, just those moments to kind of pause and say, what am I learning? What do I need to work on moving forward? And again, I think that's what today's episode is about is just to try to provide some perspective on where we're at in the world and recovery and what might it look like. And maybe not all of it applies to every one of you, but hopefully a lot of it does and it will stir your thinking about what kind of things do you really

want to develop in the coming year.
