ICYPAA: Young Spirits Soaring in Sobriety

Internally, I'm filled with a lot of negative thought processes, but through this program and through the work that I've done, I have hope and I'm able to readjust how I think Today.
Picture the vibrant streets of New Orleans filled with young people celebrating a shared journey of recovery. That’s exactly what you’ll find in this episode of the AA Grapevine Podcast, where hosts Don and Sam take you inside the International Conference of Young People in AA (ICYPAA). This annual gathering is a melting pot of stories, hope, and resilience from young AA members around the globe.
From lively parades to heartfelt sobriety countdowns, ICYPAA is a testament to the power of community and the joy of sobriety. Don and Sam bring you five in-depth interviews along with six shorter reflections, capturing the essence of the event. You'll hear young members open up about their battles with negative thinking, legal troubles, and even hospitalizations due to alcoholism. But it's not all about struggles; it's also about the triumphs.
These young voices share their journeys of readjusting their thoughts and finding hope through a higher power. They discuss everything from relationships and reaching out to the black community, to the everyday challenges they face and overcome. The episode is a rich tapestry of experiences that underscore the transformative power of AA's program.
Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or just curious, this episode offers a unique glimpse into the lives of young people committed to sobriety and self-improvement.
