Michael Kelly's Raw Journey: From Desperation to Hope

Episode Overview

  • Understanding the importance of comprehending the problem of addiction before seeking a solution
  • Highlighting the role of desperation and hope in the recovery process
  • Emphasising the significance of Step One in Alcoholics Anonymous for a successful recovery journey
  • Offering raw and honest insights on the challenges and triumphs of sobriety
  • Exploring the impact of sponsorship and 12-step workshops in the context of recovery
But until we understand step one, none of this makes sense. We could spend a day on just conveying what Audrey covered and just reemphasizing it. Because if we don't understand our problem, you're never going to understand the solution. Period. And you're going to do nothing but confuse. And there's nothing worse than confusing the already confused. Nothing good comes out of that. All right. Good.
