My selfishness could not see my selfishness, especially the first couple of times.
In this episode of 'That's NOT in the book!', Agent X and Morbid Reflection continue their riveting discussion on working with others in Alcoholics Anonymous. This second part dives into their extraordinary experiences abroad, particularly in Mongolia, where the AA community is still relatively new. Agent X shares an eye-opening story about meeting a long-time sober member who had only ever read the translated Big Book and needed guidance on the 12 steps.
The episode paints a vivid picture of cultural challenges, like translation issues and differing societal norms, that can make recovery even more complex. Morbid Reflection adds depth by recounting their own transformative journey and the profound impact of helping others navigate sobriety in a foreign land. Their stories are filled with humour, raw honesty, and touching moments that highlight the power of community and willingness in the recovery process.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the global reach of AA and the unique hurdles faced by those bringing its message to new territories. Don't miss out on these inspiring tales of resilience and hope!
