Lisa's Lifeline: Embracing Help in AA

If you really and truly are broken and ready, then grab onto that rope that's offered. Stop analyzing it and do what you're fucking told.
Imagine you're stranded in the middle of a stormy sea, struggling to stay afloat. Suddenly, someone throws you a life preserver. Do you overthink it, or do you grab on for dear life? In this episode of '2 Sober Chicks,' Lisa dives into the essence of this analogy, focusing on the importance of accepting help in the journey of recovery.
Drawing from her own experiences, she emphasizes how crucial it is to let go of pride and trust the process of AA.

She argues that clinging to ego and resisting assistance only prolongs suffering. By sharing personal stories and practical advice, Lisa underscores the value of sponsorship and the transformative power of surrendering to the program.
Through engaging anecdotes and straightforward wisdom, Lisa makes a compelling case for why overanalyzing can be detrimental. Her message is clear: when someone offers you a lifeline in AA, don't hesitate—grab it. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with the challenges of sobriety or supporting someone who is. It's a heartfelt reminder that sometimes, the best way to save yourself is to simply accept the help that's offered.
