Connie's Journey: From Gastric Bypass to Sobriety and Serenity

We can utilize this program in every aspect of our life. I have serenity, and I never felt that before.
Connie's story is a unique one. She didn’t start drinking until she was an adult, after undergoing gastric-bypass surgery. Her drinking career was short but intense, leading her to a dark place. After eight years of what she calls 'angry sobriety', she relapsed and found herself needing a different approach. In this episode of the 'Keep Coming Back Podcast', Connie opens up about her journey through alcoholism and how she finally found peace through Alcoholics Anonymous.
She shares how the twelve steps of AA became more than just a program for her—they became a way of life. Connie talks about building a relationship with a higher power and learning to surrender control, which brought her a serenity she had never felt before. This episode is a powerful reminder of the transformative power of AA's twelve steps and the importance of surrender in recovery. Tune in to hear Connie's inspiring story of hope and healing.
