Claire H. has an incredible story of transformation that you'll find both relatable and inspiring. Growing up in England, she started drinking at 14, influenced by the pub culture and her father's alcoholism. By the time she moved to America at 30, Claire was deep in the throes of addiction. Her life took a drastic turn when she found Alcoholics Anonymous, even though she was initially resistant to the program.
Claire's journey to sobriety wasn't straightforward—she continued to drink for three months after joining AA. However, through persistent meeting attendance, step work with her sponsor, and service within the AA community, she eventually embraced a life of sobriety. Now, 29 years sober, Claire is a beacon of hope for others struggling with addiction. She shares how AA's simple yet profound practices have given her life meaning and purpose.
Claire’s story is a testament to the power of continuous effort and community support in overcoming addiction. If you’re looking for a tale of resilience and hope, this episode is a must-listen.
