Trina K.: Rediscovering Sobriety Through Faith and Fellowship

If I remain teachable, I have a fighting chance- and that is incorporating all the steps and taking all the suggestions from someone who has what I want in this program.
Imagine facing a terminal illness and realizing your sobriety has slipped away. Trina K. from Eugene, Oregon, found herself in this exact situation. In this heartfelt episode of the Daily Reflection Podcast, Trina opens up about her journey back to the Eleventh Step and the profound impact it had on her life. Despite having fifteen years of sobriety, Trina's quality of life had deteriorated, and it took a dire health prognosis to wake her up.
With a malignant tumor and a grim outlook, she turned back to the practices she had neglected, especially meditation and prayer. Trina shares how hitting rock bottom—multiple times—forced her to confront her dishonesty and become teachable once again. She found solace in daily reflections and the wisdom of AA literature, which helped her rebuild her faith and find strength in fellowship. Attending meetings and connecting with people from all over the world became her lifeline.
Her story is not just about surviving but thriving, illustrating the transformative power of the Eleventh Step and the joy that comes from living a life beyond one's wildest dreams. Trina's experience is a powerful reminder that it's never too late to return to the path of recovery, no matter how far you've strayed. Tune in to hear her inspiring journey and the lessons she's learned along the way.
