People who don't necessarily have a higher power- and this is a big fault of AA, it really is, and it's maybe not necessarily a fault of AA, but it is it. Yeah, um, and that's okay, right, right, no, well, it's just that we need other options too.
Can you find sobriety without believing in a higher power? In this episode of HOME Podcast, hosts Laura McKowen and Holly Whitaker sit down with Catherine Gray, an atheist who has navigated the recovery world without leaning on traditional AA beliefs. Catherine called out Laura and Holly on their past jokes about spirituality, leading to a series of enlightening conversations that culminate in this thought-provoking episode.
They dive into what it means to be an atheist in a recovery community often centered around faith, exploring how believers and non-believers can walk the same path and learn from each other. Catherine shares her personal journey to sobriety, her mixed feelings about AA, and her belief in the importance of self-esteem and self-love. If you're curious about alternative recovery options or simply want to hear a different perspective, this episode offers a fresh take on the recovery process.
