First Steps and Zoom Meetings: Corey and Marnie's Recovery Insights

Having a problem with alcohol is a common thing, and it doesn't make you a bad person.
Ever thought about how Zoom meetings could change your recovery journey? In this episode of the 217 Recovery Podcast, Corey and Marnie Winfield dive into the transformative power of the first step in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and the unexpected benefits of virtual meetings. Corey opens up about his own experiences with relapse and the initial reluctance to accept his addiction. He humorously recalls his mindset of 'partying hard' before treatment, a sentiment many might find all too familiar.
But it's not all laughs; Corey gets real about the stigma that comes with the 'alcoholic' label and how it can hinder recovery. Marnie adds her perspective on the importance of community support, emphasizing that talking to others who share similar struggles can be incredibly healing. They both stress that attending AA meetings, whether in person or via Zoom, can be a game-changer in staying sober.
This episode is a heartfelt blend of personal stories and practical advice, making it a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is.
