The 12-step industry is actively harmful to women, which is something that many of you and your listeners have known for a long time.
Imagine attending a support meeting and feeling more threatened than supported. In this eye-opening episode of Safe Recovery, Monica Richardson sits down with author and journalist Gabrielle Glaser to shed light on the dark side of the 12-step industry. Gabrielle, who has an impressive background with The New York Times and NPR, dives deep into her research on the predatory behavior often found in these meetings.
Her book, 'Uncorked: The Science of Women and Alcohol', challenges the traditional narratives surrounding women and drinking, offering a fresh perspective on an age-old issue. Monica and Gabrielle don't hold back as they discuss the puritanical roots of America's approach to addiction recovery and how it disproportionately affects women. Gabrielle shares startling insights into the risk factors unique to women and critiques the one-size-fits-all mentality of AA. She passionately argues for alternative methods that empower rather than diminish.
If you've ever questioned the effectiveness or safety of traditional 12-step programs, this episode is a must-listen. Gabrielle's investigative prowess combined with Monica's candid hosting makes for a compelling discussion that could change how you view addiction recovery. Tune in to explore new avenues for healing and empowerment.
