I am as powerless Today as I've ever been. I don't get more power, I just get more humility because I thought for a long time I would come in and I would work the golden steps.
Ever wondered how someone can stay sober for 25 years? Krista M's story on the Sober Shares podcast is a testament to the power of resilience and spiritual growth. In this episode, Krista opens up about her early years of drinking, where alcohol initially felt like a comforting escape from her fears. She recalls how drinking made her feel relaxed and able to cope with life, but this comfort came at a high cost.
Her addiction eventually wreaked havoc on her life and relationships, leading her to a crossroads where she had to choose between continuing down a destructive path or seeking help. Krista's journey to sobriety began with an accidental attendance at her first AA meeting, a moment that changed her life forever. She candidly shares how working the steps and engaging with Al-Anon have been crucial in maintaining her sobriety.
Prayer, which she initially doubted, became a cornerstone of her recovery, thanks to the advice of seasoned AA members. Throughout the episode, Krista emphasizes the importance of humility and the ongoing effort required to stay sober. Her sponsor played a significant role in her recovery, guiding her through the ups and downs and helping her rebuild every aspect of her life.
Now, as she works with her own sponsees, Krista finds joy and purpose in giving back to the community that saved her. Krista's story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding happiness and spiritual fulfillment. Her experience serves as a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction, reminding us that it's never too late to seek help and start anew. Tune in to hear Krista's inspiring journey on Sober Shares and discover the transformative power of sobriety.
