In this episode of the Transitions Daily Alcoholics Anonymous Recovery Readings Podcast, Brittany F. from Houston, Texas, shares a powerful message about delusion and the importance of accepting one's alcoholism. The episode kicks off with a thought-provoking quote from Alcoholics Anonymous: 'We learned that we had to fully concede to our innermost selves that we were alcoholics.
This is the first step in recovery.' This sets the tone for a deep dive into the themes of self-acceptance and honesty, which are crucial for anyone on the journey to sobriety.

This tradition highlights the importance of giving every alcoholic a fair chance at recovery without judgment or exclusion. Brittany also reflects on her personal experience with Step Nine, which involves making direct amends. She shares how this step has been transformative in her life, helping her repair past relationships and behaviours.
The episode wraps up with a hopeful note from the 'Big Book', reminding listeners that life in sobriety can be full of new meaning and fulfilling connections. Whether you're new to recovery or have been sober for years, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice to support your journey. Don't miss out on this heartfelt and honest discussion that could make a real difference in your path to sobriety.
