Meena's Path: From Addiction to Spiritual Awakening

After step one, we just went straight into step two and step three, which was the very uncomfortable for me, because step three is, we made a decision to turn our will over to the care of god as we understand him.
Ever thought about how spirituality could play a role in recovery? Meena's story offers a fascinating look into this journey. Growing up in a traditional Punjabi household in Thousand Oaks, California, Meena faced unique challenges, including coming out as gay and battling addiction from a young age. Pills and cocaine became her escape, leading her down a path she never intended to take.
In this episode of 'One Day I Decided', Meena opens up about her transformative journey to sobriety through Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Initially skeptical about the concept of a higher power, Meena eventually found solace and purpose through the 12 steps of AA. Her story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about discovering spirituality and the importance of self-love and positive thinking in the recovery process.
Meena also sheds light on the impact of addiction on family relationships and the invaluable role of mentorship in her recovery. From mug shots to a successful career as a traveling event photographer and videographer, Meena's journey is a testament to the power of resilience and gratitude. If you're curious about how spirituality can aid in recovery or need some inspiration for your own journey, Meena's story is a must-listen.
Tune in to hear how she turned her life around and found her true purpose.
