Decoding AA's Big Book: Monica Richardson's Deep Dive

When they say to you, like in the beginning, when they said your own conception of god, maybe it was that way for maybe seconds, but it sure isn't like that anymore, it is. Because, like you have pointed out, there have been deaths, there have been suicides.
Ever wondered what's really behind the pages of AA's Big Book? Monica Richardson is here to break it down for you in this episode of 'Safe Recovery'. She takes a critical look at the language and culture embedded in the book, challenging its long-held beliefs and practices. Monica doesn't just stop at critique; she offers fresh, alternative methods for dealing with alcohol dependency and drug overuse.
You'll hear about the importance of changing environments, the potential pitfalls of government cults, and how Hollywood has influenced AA. It's a thought-provoking journey that aims to foster a more supportive and empowering community for those struggling with addiction. If you're curious about different paths to recovery or just want to understand the Big Book better, this episode is a must-listen.
