Digging deeper is important, and that's why aa, a standalone program of aa, I don't think is very. But yeah, so that was my first experience. Really it doesn't sit with me, right, you know, like it's not my personal thing and I need- I would really like you know- to hear other people's stories about how they did it without that, because I don't have that.
Imagine being introduced to a recovery program that doesn't quite resonate with your beliefs. That's exactly what happened to Kayla Connor. In this episode of Beyond Belief Sobriety, Kayla shares her personal journey through addiction recovery, emphasizing the critical role of community and shared stories. While she initially encountered AA during treatment, Kayla found the religious language challenging to connect with. This led her to seek out secular alternatives that better aligned with her worldview.
Kayla’s story isn't just about her struggle with addiction; it’s also about her quest for literature and resources that cater to those who, like her, prefer a non-religious approach to recovery. She sheds light on the unique barriers faced by individuals in the food and beverage industry, a sector notorious for its close ties to alcohol. Through self-awareness and community support, Kayla illustrates how these elements are vital in overcoming addiction.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with similar challenges or supporting someone who is. Kayla’s insights offer a fresh perspective on how secular paths can be just as effective in achieving sobriety.
