Embracing Humility: Insights from Cross Talk's Episode with Siena

And I think that in some ways, you know, I think I've made the alcoholic my higher power, many, many, many times, and so to humbly ask my actual higher power to remove my shortcomings is so on, is so honest when I'm able to really do it, you know, and again there's no expectation of a delivery of that.

Corey and Claire also take a moment to explore the roots of the 12-step program, offering listeners a bit of history alongside Siena's heartfelt anecdotes. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with the challenges of humility and seeking support in their recovery journey.
