By temperament, nearly every one of us had an irresistible promoter, and the prospect of society composed almost entirely of promoters was frightening.
Ever wondered if the 12 Traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous still hold up in today's world? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Safe Recovery', the host dives deep into the viability of these long-standing guidelines. Are they just relics of a bygone era, or do they still have a place in modern recovery? Tradition 10, which famously states that AA has no opinion on outside issues, comes under scrutiny. Is it an excuse to avoid accountability, or is it being misinterpreted?
Real-life scenarios are brought to light, including troubling accounts of predatory behavior within meetings. The host questions why it's acceptable for AA co-founder Bill Wilson to be publicly promoted while members are asked to put the group above the individual. Listeners call in to share their own experiences and perspectives, sparking a lively debate about the need for a more empowering and personalized approach to sobriety.
If you're curious about alternative recovery strategies and want to challenge the status quo, this episode is a must-listen.
