Sobriety didn't make me a superhuman, but it gave me the ability to be a regular human, and regular humans experience the entire gamut of human emotions and life experience, whether they're amazing or horrible.
What does it take to get sober at just 24 years old? In this episode of AA Grapevine's Podcast, hosts Don and Sam sit down with Coree to discuss her early journey into sobriety. Coree opens up about the challenges she faced and the pivotal role Alcoholics Anonymous played in her recovery. Her story isn't just about quitting alcohol; it's about discovering the benefits of sobriety, from enhanced creativity to a better sense of humor.
Coree's experience highlights the importance of self-reflection and how service to others has become a cornerstone of her sober life. But that's not all. The episode also takes a nostalgic turn with 'A Blast From the Past', where Bill W., one of AA's co-founders, shares a humorous story from a talk he gave back in 1960. It's a reminder that even in the serious journey of recovery, there's room for laughter and light-hearted moments.
Whether you're a young person struggling with alcoholism or someone supporting a loved one through their recovery, Coree's story is a powerful testament to the impact of community support and personal growth. Tune in for an episode filled with candid conversations, valuable insights, and a touch of humor.
