Julie W's Journey: 40 Years of Sobriety and the Power of Sharing
The program is built to get us out of self. So, in fact, I was in a meeting this morning and talked about a spiritual experience and basically how we react to life, being different, right, and I think that's hard to grasp for some people.
What does four decades of sobriety look like? In this episode of 'Sober Speak', Julie W opens up about her incredible journey of staying sober for 40 years. Julie's story is a testament to the enduring strength of the Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) program. She emphasizes how the core principles of AA have remained a steady anchor throughout her life, helping her through challenges like battling cancer.
Julie’s philosophy is simple yet profound: focus on the similarities rather than the differences in life. This mindset has been a cornerstone of her recovery and personal growth. Julie passionately believes in the power of 'passing it on'—sharing the program with others as a way to stay grounded and give back. Her message is one of hope, unity, and the enduring value of community support.
If you're seeking inspiration or a reminder that you're not alone in your journey, Julie's story will resonate deeply.
