Whatever you did, you did it because you couldn't do it any better: not to feel alone, to be able to love you, to be able to let you guys love me.
Ever felt like quitting drinking was just the first step in a much bigger journey? In this episode of the Big Book Awakening podcast, Oliver S. opens up about his quest for a fulfilling life, not just sobriety. Oliver dives into his favorite topic from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous: 'There's a solution.' But for him, it's more than just a phrase—it's a lifeline.
He shares how he had to hit rock bottom and exhaust every other option before he could fully embrace the Twelve Steps program. Oliver's story is a raw and honest look at the physical cravings and emotional battles that come with addiction. He talks about how he had to confront his pride, dig deep into self-reflection, and confess his flaws to find true spiritual awakening. It's not just about quitting alcohol; it's about finding a new way to live.
One of the most touching parts of Oliver's journey is his realization that faith and support are crucial. He emphasizes the importance of having a good sponsor and trusting in a higher power, whatever that may be for each person. His message is clear: recovery is a team effort, and no one has to go it alone. If you're looking for inspiration or need a reminder of why you started your recovery journey, Oliver's story is a must-listen.
He encourages everyone to stick with the program, have faith in their path, and keep searching for that deeper meaning in life.
