God was doing for me what I could not do for myself.
Ever wondered how the steps of Alcoholics Anonymous can transform a life? In this episode, Don and Sam sit down with Amy S., who opens up about her journey through AA’s steps with the guidance of a sponsor. Amy's story is a powerful testament to the healing and support that AA offers.
She shares how her sponsor played a crucial role in navigating the often challenging steps, particularly the fifth step, and how this process brought her closer to her higher power. Amy also highlights the importance of meetings, AA literature, and memorable quotes that have kept her grounded in her sobriety journey. But it’s not all serious talk.
Don and Sam keep the conversation lively with a fun segment called 'Stump the Thumper', where they quiz Amy on her knowledge of AA literature. Her enthusiasm and deep connection to AA's program shine through, making this episode both engaging and educational. Amy’s reflections provide a vivid picture of how working closely with a sponsor can be a lifeline in recovery. She emphasizes that the support from her sponsor and the broader AA community has been instrumental in her sobriety.
One of her favourite quotes from the Big Book, 'Acceptance Was the Answer', encapsulates the essence of her recovery journey. For anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is, Amy’s story offers hope and practical insights into the transformative power of AA’s steps. Tune in to hear how a structured program, coupled with personal support, can lead to profound changes and lasting sobriety.
