In this heartfelt episode of Sober Cast, Jenni M from Scottsdale, Arizona, shares her incredible journey of nine years of sobriety at the Friends of Bill and Lois Monthly Speaker Meeting. Jenni opens up about her tumultuous past, from being jumped at a party at 17 to moving 26 times in 13 years, and the chaotic life she led before finding solace in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA).
Her story is raw and unfiltered, highlighting the struggles and triumphs that come with addiction and recovery. Jenni's narrative is peppered with moments of clarity and despair, such as when she realised her face was cracked and grey from years of drinking, or when she found herself managing life into the ground with no divine intervention. She talks about her initial scepticism towards AA and God, and how a friend's light in her eye led her to her first meeting.
Through the 12 steps of AA, Jenni developed a relationship with a higher power and began to see miraculous changes in her life. One of the most touching parts of Jenni's story is her relationship with her stepchildren. She shares how each child has taught her something unique about God and life, from locking one out of the house for bringing drugs to making amends later.
Her journey through AA not only helped her find sobriety but also brought healing to her family. Jenni's story is a testament to the transformative power of AA and the importance of community and support in recovery. Her candid recounting of her experiences offers hope and inspiration to anyone struggling with addiction. So, if you're looking for a story that’s both gritty and uplifting, Jenni M's journey is one you won't want to miss.
