"Surrendering to a higher power is the way of strength. It doesn't happen overnight, just like the development and the progression of our active addiction didn't happen overnight."
Katie F. spent over a decade lost in the grip of alcoholism before she found her way to the supportive community of Alcoholics Anonymous. In this heartfelt episode of the Daily Reflection Podcast, Katie opens up about her journey from the depths of addiction to a life filled with gratitude and purpose. She reads the daily reflection for January 13th and shares how these words resonate deeply with her personal recovery story.
Katie's tale is a powerful reminder that sobriety doesn't come overnight—it requires patience, effort, and a willingness to embrace change. She talks candidly about the struggles she faced, from family and financial issues to old religious hang-ups, and how the steps of the AA program helped her navigate these challenges. One of the most compelling aspects of Katie's story is her emphasis on surrendering to a higher power.
She believes that true strength comes from letting go and trusting in something greater than oneself. This episode is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding strength in vulnerability and hope in the darkest of times. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Katie's story offers valuable insights and inspiration.
