Andy F.: Overcoming the Twelve Steps as an Agnostic

I owe it to myself and to these people to share my experiences- that you don't need to believe in god for the steps to work for you.
Ever wondered how someone without religious beliefs can navigate the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous? Meet Andy F., an agnostic who has managed to do just that. In this episode of Beyond Belief Sobriety, Andy opens up about his journey from a troubled childhood in foster care to battling mental illness and alcoholism. Raised in a religious environment and abandoned by his mother, Andy turned to substances to cope with his pain.
Hitting rock bottom, he joined AA but struggled with the concept of a higher power. With the support of his sponsor and a focus on his personal beliefs, Andy was able to work through the Twelve Steps and find a new way of life. His story is a testament to the power of individual beliefs in addiction recovery. Tune in to hear how Andy found hope and sobriety through a secular path.
