Jennifer's Transformation: Embracing Step Three on Big Book Awakening

I was so traumatized from the time I was born and up until present, and I didn't believe there was anything on this earth that could ever protect me to be with me.
Ever felt like you were constantly trying to control everything, only to end up exhausted and unfulfilled? Jennifer knows that feeling all too well. In this episode of 'Big Book Awakening', she candidly shares her journey through Step Three of the Twelve Steps program. Jennifer opens up about how she spent years manipulating situations and people to get what she wanted, always justifying her actions. But living on self-propulsion left her feeling empty and disconnected.
The turning point came when Jennifer decided to surrender her will and life to a higher power. This decision wasn't easy, but it brought profound changes. She talks about the challenges of letting go of control and the surprising peace that came with trusting a power greater than herself.
Jennifer also emphasizes the role of therapy and Al-Anon in her recovery, providing valuable insights into how these resources helped her grow not just as an individual, but also as a parent. One of the most compelling parts of Jennifer's story is her reflection on slowing down and building spiritual connections. She highlights how taking the time to nurture her spiritual life has brought clarity and guidance she never thought possible.
Jennifer's narrative is a powerful reminder that true transformation often requires us to let go of our tight grip on life and trust in something greater. Whether you're new to the Twelve Steps or well into your recovery journey, Jennifer's story offers inspiration and practical advice. Tune in to hear how embracing Step Three can lead to a life of true protection, guidance, and peace.
