Brian dives into how these initial steps helped him realign both spiritually and mentally, providing a slower but steadier transformation compared to the quick fix of alcohol.
His story is a testament to the power of AA and its ability to foster deep, lasting change. Brian doesn't shy away from discussing the challenges many face with the concept of God in recovery. He talks candidly about his own struggles and how he came to terms with his belief system. His sponsor played a pivotal role in this journey, guiding him through fears and insecurities with patience and understanding.
