Mastering the Art of Helping Others: Insights from Big Book Page 96

If someone is ready, there's nothing you can say wrong. And if they're not ready, there's nothing you can say right.
Imagine trying to help someone with their addiction, only to feel like you're hitting a brick wall. In this episode of 'Big Book with Karen', Karen reads from page 96 of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous and unpacks the delicate balance of working with others in AA. Her interpretation is both eye-opening and practical, offering listeners valuable advice on how to be there for someone in need without losing themselves in the process.
Karen underscores a crucial point: if someone isn't ready to accept help, no amount of persuasion will change that. Conversely, if they are ready, your words will resonate deeply. This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone involved in the recovery community, whether you're new to sobriety or a seasoned veteran. Karen also emphasizes the importance of staying close to your support group and continually working on the 12th step.
It's not just about being available to help others; it's about maintaining your own stability and growth in the process. So, if you're looking for practical tips and heartfelt guidance on how to effectively support others on their recovery journey, this episode is a must-listen.
