AA is no success story in the ordinary sense of the word. It is a story of suffering transmuted under grace.
In this episode of the RAW Recovery Podcast, Dion, the host, takes listeners on a journey through the world of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) by diving into the story of Dr. Bob, one of AA's co-founders. Dion's casual and humorous style, accompanied by his persistent cat, makes for an engaging listen. The episode focuses on the medical and spiritual aspects of recovery, shedding light on Dr. Bob's struggles and triumphs.
Dion emphasises the importance of sharing personal stories to foster connection and hope among those in recovery. He also touches on the concept of 'deflation at great depth' as a foundation for spiritual experiences, a principle highlighted by Dr. Silkworth and William James. Dion's reflections on his own journey and the importance of mutual support in recovery are both relatable and inspiring.
Whether you're new to recovery or have been on the path for a while, this episode offers valuable insights and a sense of community.
