I'm sober Today because of a power greater than myself that I found in the rooms of alcoholics anonymous, and it's because I took the steps that power was revealed to me, and I'm grateful for that.
Sheldon F's story is a testament to the life-changing power of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Sober since 1996, Sheldon has become a well-known circuit speaker, sharing his journey at workshops and meetings across the country. In this episode of Sober Cast, recorded at the Primary Purpose Group in April 2021, Sheldon dives into his past, recounting a difficult childhood and his early battles with alcohol.
His candid reflections on the challenges he faced as a young adult—struggles with work, relationships, and self-worth—paint a vivid picture of the turmoil that often accompanies addiction. But Sheldon's story is also one of hope and transformation. He speaks openly about confronting his character defects, particularly fear and shame, through the steps of AA. These steps helped him find a path to serenity and self-acceptance.
The episode also touches on the unique difficulties of maintaining sobriety during a pandemic, showcasing Sheldon's resilience and adaptability. His unwavering commitment to sobriety and faith in a higher power are inspiring beacons for anyone on their own recovery journey. This episode is a powerful reminder that no matter how tough life gets, there's always a way forward with the support of AA.
