Steps 1-3: Winslow, Barb, and Emily's Path to Sobriety

I knew I was an alcoholic when I was 13 years old. I think what happened for me at an early age is I started to experience a separation from God. And this night I always share this because he begged me on that night to stay with him, and I don't know about any of you, but when the booze starts calling, you know what we have to do.
Ever wondered how the first three steps of AA can transform lives? In this episode of Sober Cast, you'll hear from Winslow S, Barb S, and Emily D, who share their powerful stories from the New Freedom 12-Step Workshop in Baltimore, Maryland. Recorded in November 2013, this episode dives into their personal experiences with Steps 1-3 and how these foundational steps have been crucial in their journey to sobriety.
Winslow talks about the pitfalls of spiritual pride and how embracing acceptance has been key in his recovery. Barb opens up about diagnosing herself with alcoholism at a young age and the humbling process of reaching out for help. Emily shares a poignant story of knowing she was an alcoholic at just 13 and her struggle to stay connected with a higher power as alcohol tried to pull her away.
The speakers highlight the importance of willingness, spirituality, and humility in overcoming addiction. They discuss how Alcoholics Anonymous has provided them with the tools and support needed to navigate their paths to sobriety. Through their heartfelt stories, you'll get a sense of the community and connection that AA fosters, offering hope and healing to those struggling with addiction.
