Step 1 of AA: Joe McDonald on Honesty and Humility

To show other alcoholics precisely how we have recovered is the main purpose of this book.
Ever wondered what it really takes to kickstart your sobriety journey? In this episode of 'Position of Neutrality', Joe McDonald dives into the foundational Step 1 of Alcoholics Anonymous. This step is all about admitting that you're powerless over alcohol and that your life has become unmanageable. Joe shares his personal struggles and triumphs, making it clear that honesty and humility are crucial in this first step towards recovery. He also sheds light on Dr.
William Silkworth's role in AA's development and introduces the concept of an alcohol allergy, which can make quitting even more challenging. Joe's reflections on Bill's story from AA literature provide deep insights into the human heart and the transformative power of relying on a Higher Power. Whether you're just starting out or have been on this path for a while, Joe's candid discussion offers a fresh perspective on what it means to truly begin your journey to sobriety.
