The beautiful thing about the fifth step is you don't have to share it with the world, you just have to share it with one other human being.
What happens when you lay bare your deepest flaws to another person? In this episode of 'That's NOT in the book!', Agent X and Poetica tackle this very question as they dissect page 70 of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. The duo dives into the fifth step, emphasizing how sharing your innermost fears with just one other person can be a pivotal moment in your recovery journey.
