That's in our literature, the big book, the steps that if I, if I work that program, and I do it someone else's way, a sponsors, then my life changes and I wind up not drinking anymore.
Ever thought calling yourself an alcoholic could be more than just a joke? Katherine did exactly that for years before she took the brave step of joining Alcoholics Anonymous. In this episode of the Boiled Owl AA Recovery Podcast, Katherine shares her compelling story of struggle, denial, and ultimate transformation. Moving out of state to drink freely, she tried controlled drinking but soon realized it wasn't the answer.
Her first AA meeting was nothing short of fantastic, and it marked the beginning of her true journey to sobriety. With a sobriety date of 15SEP2010, Katherine’s home group is Keeping It Green in Greensboro, NC. She opens up about how AA principles helped her navigate getting a new job during the COVID pandemic and how finding a higher power expanded her spirituality. Katherine's story is a powerful reminder that recognizing the problem is the first step toward recovery.
Initially resistant to meetings and sponsorship, she eventually embraced the program and found that taking suggestions changed her life. Her journey offers hope and strength to anyone struggling with addiction, showing that it's possible to find your own path to sobriety and commit to it. Tune in to hear Katherine's inspiring tale and gain insights into the transformative power of Alcoholics Anonymous.
