Navigating Sobriety and Family Life with Agent X and Barbarella

Long term marriage and sobriety, if you have alcoholism, are impossible things.
What happens when you blend the challenges of marriage, parenting, and recovery? In this episode of 'That's NOT in the book!', Agent X and Barbarella tackle these complex topics while diving into page 67 of 'How It Works' from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. The duo shares candid stories from their personal journeys with AA, alcoholism, and sobriety, offering a raw look at the ups and downs of recovery.
From discussing how to expand one's universe during the pandemic to battling sneaky egos and fears, Agent X and Barbarella keep it real. They also touch on the critical role of service in staying grounded in sobriety. As the conversation unfolds, they explore the intricacies of parenting and the importance of trusting a higher power. Long-term marriage and sobriety come under the spotlight too, with honest discussions about taking responsibility for one's actions and the lingering effects of childhood trauma.
This episode is a blend of heartfelt honesty and practical advice, providing listeners with hope and a sense of community. Agent X's favorite prayer, 'Whatever you want god, whatever you want', encapsulates the essence of letting go and trusting the process. If you're looking for inspiration and a touch of humor on your path to sobriety, this episode is a must-listen.
