I want to talk to you Today about starting from nothing, because AA certainly did start from nothing. And I want to talk to you about miracles.
What happens when you blend the wisdom of a 12-step program with the insights of someone who lived through its early days? Bob S Jr., son of the legendary 'Doctor Bob', takes you on a journey through his own Al-Anon recovery in this episode of The Recovery Show. Recorded during an Al-Anon conference in 2003, Bob's talk is a treasure trove of personal anecdotes and historical tidbits about the origins of AA and Al-Anon.
He delves into how surrendering to a higher power transformed his life from chaos to serenity. Bob's message is clear: service and choice are cornerstones of recovery. Encouraged by his sponsor to take on service roles, Bob found new purpose and joy, even being considered for a trustee position at large for all of Al-Anon. His story underscores the freedom that comes from taking responsibility for one's life, rather than falling into a victim mindset.
If you're looking for practical advice and heartfelt inspiration, Bob's experiences offer both in spades. Tune in to hear how embracing these principles can lead to a life that's not just free from addiction's shadow, but genuinely happy and fulfilling.
