Nothing outside of me has ever fixed me, and yet I've always believed that it would.
Ever wondered how to truly embrace change on the road to recovery? Mike S from Riverside, CA, offers a compelling narrative in this episode of Sober Cast. Recorded at Woodstock West in LA, May 2019, Mike dives into the importance of Steps 6 and 7 in his journey to sobriety. He doesn't just talk about these steps; he lives them, sharing how they helped him confront his flaws and lean into the process of transformation.
Mike's story is a mix of raw honesty and hopeful inspiration. He talks about his struggles with alcoholism and the turning points that led him to a life of sobriety. One of his key insights is the realization that nothing external can fix the internal chaos caused by addiction. As he poignantly states, 'Nothing outside of me has ever fixed me, and yet I've always believed that it would'.
This aha moment was a game-changer for Mike, pushing him to look inward for solutions. Sponsorship also plays a crucial role in Mike's story. He emphasizes the need for a strong sponsor—someone who can offer guidance and support through the ups and downs of recovery. His experiences highlight the power of having someone who believes in you, even when you struggle to believe in yourself.
This episode is more than just a talk; it's a testament to the transformative power of AA and the importance of taking personal responsibility in the recovery journey. Whether you're new to sobriety or have been on this path for years, Mike's story offers valuable insights and encouragement. Tune in to hear how Steps 6 and 7 can be a cornerstone in your own journey towards a healthier, alcohol-free life.
