Peter M. shares his compelling journey through Step Three of Alcoholics Anonymous in this episode of Mad Dog Recovery AA Speakers. Recorded at the Stepping Stones Workshop in Philadelphia, Peter brings his unique blend of humour, honesty, and wisdom to the table. He opens up about his life as a recovered alcoholic, emphasising the significance of surrendering to a higher power and the profound impact it has had on his sobriety since June 23, 1988.
Peter's reflections are filled with relatable anecdotes, from his initial resistance to fully committing to the process, to the realisation that true transformation requires going 'all the way' into the forest of recovery, not just skimming the surface. His stories of personal struggles, like dealing with the death of his mother and the tough love from his father, offer a raw and unfiltered look into the emotional battles faced by many in recovery.
He speaks candidly about his scepticism towards embracing light and positivity after years of darkness and negativity, sharing how he learned to trust in a higher power. Peter's message is clear: sobriety isn't just about abstaining from alcohol but about finding a deeper connection with oneself and a higher power. His talk is peppered with light-hearted moments, making it both engaging and thought-provoking.
Whether you're new to recovery or have been on the journey for years, Peter's insights provide valuable lessons and a sense of camaraderie. Tune in to hear Peter's heartfelt and humorous take on what it means to truly embrace Step Three and live a life guided by a higher power.
