Exposing the Dark Side of AA: Predatory Behaviors Unveiled

This show was created to uncover predatory behavior going on in alcoholics anonymous, in the rooms, in the culture, and our slogan, like Kelly said, is empowerment, not powerless.
Imagine walking into a support group meeting, seeking solace and understanding, only to encounter predatory behaviors that exploit your vulnerability. In this episode of 'Safe Recovery', Monica and Kali tackle the unsettling issue of '13 stepping' within Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meetings. This term refers to the manipulative tactics used by some members, including sexual harassment, financial scams, and sponsorship abuse.
The hosts share their own experiences and discuss the emotional toll these behaviors can take on individuals trying to recover from addiction. They highlight the MAAS - Make AA Safer Pamphlet, a grassroots initiative aimed at addressing these predatory practices and making AA meetings safer for everyone. Monica and Kali also explore empowering alternatives to AA, offering listeners new paths to sobriety and emotional well-being.
Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode sheds light on critical issues and provides valuable insights into safer, more supportive recovery options.
