If we're willing to take these actions that don't altogether make sense at the time, and then they make sense in retrospect.
How do you face the people you've wronged and truly make things right? In this episode of 'The Way Out', hosts Charlie and Jason tackle Step 8 of the 12-Step Program. Step 8 asks us to list those we've harmed and become willing to make amends. Sounds straightforward, right? But as anyone who's been there knows, it's anything but simple. Emotions like fear, anger, and resentment can make this step feel like climbing a mountain.
Charlie and Jason don't shy away from these tough feelings. They share their own stories of grappling with Step 8, giving you a raw look at what it takes to work through this process. They also dive into whether you should put your own name on that list—an often debated topic in recovery circles. Plus, you'll hear feedback from the Sober & Serious community and listener calls, adding more layers of real-life experience to the discussion.
This episode isn't just about making amends; it's about finding the courage to forgive yourself and others, and planning for a future where those past wrongs don't define you. Whether you're on Step 8 or just curious about it, Charlie and Jason's insights will resonate with anyone on a journey to sobriety.
