For me, it's important to know when somebody just needs to be held and somebody just needs to be comforted, so that they can get to the point where they can hear that.
Imagine dedicating nearly half a century to staying sober. That’s exactly what Dyanne G. has achieved, and she credits much of her success to the service work she’s done within Alcoholics Anonymous. From making coffee at meetings to taking on the role of Area Secretary, Dyanne's commitment to helping others has been a cornerstone of her recovery. She believes that focusing on others, rather than herself, has been crucial in maintaining her sobriety.
In this episode, Dyanne talks about how these activities not only kept her grounded but also enriched her life in unexpected ways. Her listening skills, honed through years of recording meeting minutes, allowed her to connect deeply with fellow members and find a new sense of purpose. Dyanne's story is a beacon for newcomers who might feel intimidated by long-term sobriety.
She goes out of her way to welcome them, showing that the relationship between service and sobriety is a powerful one. If you’re looking for inspiration and practical advice on staying sober, Dyanne’s journey offers both in abundance.
