Cybriety: How Technology Connects AA Members
“I sponsor people that I've never met in person and there's a real connection there, Lois.”
Imagine finding a lifeline in your darkest moments, not through a physical meeting, but through your screen. In this episode of AA Grapevine's Podcast, hosts Don and Sam chat with Lois about the transformative role technology plays in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Lois dives into the many ways tech has bridged gaps, making it possible for members to support each other regardless of distance.
From virtual gatherings to sponsoring someone you've never met in person, technology has opened new doors for connection and recovery. Lois shares her experiences with virtual meetings and highlights the upcoming National AA Technology Workshop in Seattle. She also touches on the Boiled Owl podcast and how these digital platforms are filling the void that sobriety can sometimes create. One of the standout points Lois makes is about the willingness to embrace technology as a tool for recovery.
She emphasizes that staying connected, even virtually, can be a crucial part of maintaining sobriety. If you're curious about how AA members are leveraging technology to stay sober and support each other, this episode is a must-listen. Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, you'll find valuable insights and perhaps a new perspective on the role of tech in healing.
