The Gathering With Roger B.

Roger B.

The Gathering’s talks are generally tied to one or more of the 12 Steps, but are always guided by spiritual concepts, principles and ideas common to most faiths. Topics are drawn from a variety of sources: the 12 steps, many of the well-known wisdom texts, science and other teachers that speak to a spiritual solution to life's challenges. About Roger B. Roger has been in recovery for over 43 years and has spent thousands of hours in service, sharing his experience, strength and hope. He has created curriculum for treatment centers, and lead workshops and retreats throughout the United States and Canada. Roger is a certified Spiritual Director, and offers insight into spiritually-based living skills that are relevant to all people – whether in recovery or not. Roger is the first to admit that his long-term sobriety was brought about by the “trial-and-error method.” His experience reveals what has worked, and - perhaps more importantly - what has not worked, but taught him valuable life lessons.

Escaping the Past: Roger B. on Rewriting Your Life's Script

“If I never look or I don't do it correctly, which would be a modicum of thoroughness and honestly, I'll never get free of it, it'll load me forever.”

Ever feel like you're stuck in a loop, repeating the same mistakes? In this episode of 'The Gathering', Roger B. dives into how our early life experiences and ingrained beliefs can become mental prisons, trapping us in cycles of addiction and self-doubt. With over four decades of recovery under his belt, Roger brings a wealth of wisdom to the table, offering practical advice on breaking free from these invisible chains.

He explores how our childhood programming shapes our views and reactions, often without us even realizing it. By becoming more self-aware, we can start to rewrite our life's script, moving away from perfectionism and shame towards empathy and compassion. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the roots of their behavior and take steps toward a more fulfilling life.
