Faith and Facts: Unpacking the Effectiveness of AA with Sober.Coffee

AA works if you work for it. The beauty is that in our case study, you know who's a real human being, has the desire and is going through the motions, just has found herself at a point of not connecting with our message, which is: AA works if you work for it, you know, right, but it is working for her, right.
Can faith turn into fact when it comes to sobriety? Mike and Glenn tackle this intriguing question in an episode of the Sober.Coffee Podcast that digs deep into the effectiveness of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). They don't just skim the surface; they dive into real-life experiences, including a compelling case study of someone who has been in the program for 12 months but is still struggling to connect.
The hosts share personal stories and reflect on the importance of surrendering to the process. They also discuss findings from the Recovery Research Institute and Stanford University, which highlight AA's success in helping countless individuals achieve sobriety. Mike humorously reminds his sponsee, 'rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path', emphasizing that dedication to the program is key.
For those skeptical about AA, this episode offers a nuanced perspective on why it works for many, and practical advice for those finding it challenging. Tune in for an honest conversation about faith, facts, and the journey to sobriety.
