Anna L on Steps 8 & 9: Making Amends and Changing Lives
“The ninth step to amend is to change, and this step is telling us: you know, I'm living in a different way than I used to live, and living amends can get a bad rap sometimes in that you know: oh well, I'm not, I'm not doing that anymore, I'm good now.”
How do you face the people you've hurt and make things right? In this episode of 'Studying the Steps' from The Magdalen House, Anna L takes us through Steps 8 & 9 of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. Step 8 involves making a list of everyone we've harmed and becoming willing to make amends. Step 9 is all about actually making those amends, except when it might cause more harm than good.
Anna shares her personal journey with these steps, including stories of financial amends and mending relationships. Her reflections on past mistakes and the transformative power of making amends provide valuable insights for anyone on a recovery journey. Anna’s candid storytelling offers a blend of hope, practical advice, and emotional depth that makes this episode a must-listen for those looking to change their lives for the better.
Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, Anna's experiences offer a roadmap to healing and growth.
