Felice W. takes us on a heartfelt journey through her 31 years of sobriety in this episode of AA Recovery Interviews. Growing up as an adopted child, Felice faced many challenges. Her older brothers seemed to excel effortlessly, while she struggled, especially after her parents' divorce. By age 14, alcohol had become her go-to escape, leading to a tumultuous adolescence filled with poor choices and increasing reliance on substances.
Her life spiraled out of control until she hit rock bottom at 26, which finally led her to the doors of Alcoholics Anonymous. Despite staying sober, Felice faced further hardships, including two divorces. Yet, she remained committed to the AA program, finding strength and support in its community. Over the years, the program's gifts began to unfold, and she discovered new meaning and purpose in life.
Today, she is married to a man deeply involved in AA, enriching both their lives. Felice's story is a powerful testament to resilience and the transformative power of the AA program. Her journey from chaos to clarity offers hope and inspiration to anyone struggling with addiction.
