I just felt like I was a part of something. I didn't get other people, I didn't understand.
Imagine attending a meeting that changes your life. For Bill Tierney, that’s exactly what happened nearly 36 years ago when he stepped into his first Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) gathering. In this episode of 'Families Navigating Addiction & Recovery', host Jeff Jones sits down with Bill, a business, leadership, and life coach, to discuss his incredible journey from addiction to a life filled with meaningful connections and personal growth.
Bill shares how he initially replaced his addiction to alcohol with an addiction to AA meetings, drawn by the sense of community, relatability, and fellowship they offered. But his story doesn't stop there. He dives into how he moved beyond just attending meetings to truly transforming his life by addressing past traumas and embracing the principles of transparency and connection.
Listeners will find themselves nodding along as Bill talks about the importance of listening to our bodies and understanding that alcoholism affects the entire family. He offers insights into how everyone involved needs recovery, not just the person struggling with addiction. Bill also emphasizes the power of living in the present and minding our own business, two key elements that have helped him maintain sobriety and build healthier relationships.
This episode is a heartfelt conversation filled with practical wisdom and hope, making it a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction.
