There's been tons of people that have tried to stay sober on one side of the triangle, maybe just going to the meetings. And later, when we get into the deal, no, I'm going to do it right now.
Imagine sitting in a room where every word resonates with your journey. That's what you'll experience in this episode featuring Katie and Charlie P. as they lead a transformative Seven-part Step Study workshop in North Carolina. They kick things off by emphasizing the vital importance of starting with Step One in Alcoholics Anonymous. Charlie P. dives into why they always begin their workshops with this foundational step, while Katie highlights the pivotal role the Big Book plays in AA recovery.
Throughout the episode, Katie and Charlie P. explore the often-overlooked struggles of middle management within AA and underscore the significance of the third step. Charlie shares his personal battle with ego and how meditation has been a game-changer for staying spiritually connected. Katie delves into the fundamental principles that guide recovery and how recognizing certain traits can be a turning point in one's journey.
The discussion doesn't shy away from tough topics like selfishness and dishonesty, encouraging listeners to confront these traits within themselves. The episode wraps up with an eye-opening exercise called 'current agnosticism', designed to help individuals see their situation from a fresh perspective. Whether you're new to AA or have been on the path for a while, this episode offers invaluable insights and practical advice.
Katie and Charlie P.'s candid sharing and deep understanding of recovery principles make this a must-listen for anyone serious about sobriety.
