Step 6: Embracing Change and Character Growth

Your higher power knows if you're doing the best you possibly can do, the best I can possibly do may be different than what your best is. And our character defects, flaws, mistakes, shortcomings, will be the very things that will trigger a relapse if you're not willing to work on the elimination of them.
Ready to tackle those pesky character flaws? This episode of the '12 Steps of Recovery' podcast dives into Step 6 of AA's Big Book, focusing on the readiness to let go of character defects. Ilya, your candid and insightful host, brings his personal journey to the forefront, shedding light on the importance of willingness in this transformative step.
He discusses how relying on a higher power can aid in this process and how character defects can often lead to relapse if left unchecked. The conversation isn't just about identifying flaws; it's about fostering forgiveness, compassion, and continuous self-improvement. Through personal anecdotes and practical advice, Ilya guides listeners on a path toward a more harmonious life, both internally and within society.
If you're grappling with the challenge of character growth or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and encouragement. Tune in to learn how embracing change can pave the way to lasting sobriety.
