the "sour grapes" episode (feat. cognitive dissonance and some evolving AA thoughts)

This episode is about the fable of the "sour grapes" and how it is really a simplified version to help us with the concept of cognitive dissonance.    In this week's episode: 

• Fables, Aesop, "cautionary tales" and "story time"
• "Sour Grapes" as a version of cognitive dissonance 
• DeAnn's tips for applying  this concept to recovery work, including an exercise titled "not for me"
• Growth and Fixed Mindset 
• DeAnn's evolving AA  thoughts and how cognitive dissonance shows up there
