But coming here, doing the steps, working the steps you really have like for me, I really had to do it without cheating like I did at school.
Arline always knew she had a problem with alcohol, but it took her a while to realize just how chaotic her life had become. Despite holding down a job and keeping up appearances, she felt like she was drowning. In this episode of the Big Book Awakening podcast, Arline opens up about her struggle to admit that her life was unmanageable and her eventual decision to seek help through the Twelve Steps program of Alcoholics Anonymous.
She compares her journey to doing homework—no shortcuts allowed. Arline had to face her resentments and fears head-on, learning to let go of blame and embrace the possibility of starting over. She also touches on the ripple effects of her addiction on her family and how accepting help not only changed her life but also enabled her to support others on their recovery journeys. Arline’s story is a testament to the power of love, compassion, and faith.
Her candid reflections offer hope and practical insights for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. Tune in to hear Arline’s inspiring tale of transformation and discover the strength that lies in vulnerability.
