Charlie C: Embracing Service and Growth in Step 12

This is a guy who didn't like anything when he came in here, and I liked these people and I, and further than that, it occurred to me if I could be lifted out of this experience and put anywhere else like on earth, that I wanted to go like a free flyer trip to Hawaii, wherever I want to go.
Have you ever wondered how giving back can transform your life? In this episode of Sober Cast, Charlie C from Los Angeles dives into Step 12 of the AA program at the 2011 State-line Retreat, famously known as The Original Woodstock of AA.

Charlie talks about his spiritual awakening, which allowed him to see beyond his own struggles and focus on helping others.

This episode is a treasure trove of practical advice and heartfelt stories.
Charlie’s reflections on personal growth and enlightenment offer a beacon of hope for anyone on their path to sobriety. If you're seeking relatable stories and actionable insights, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to hear Charlie C's powerful narrative on the transformative power of Step 12.
