D. B. - 9th Step Amends with Self and with Higher Power - Meeting 303

Episode 303

vendredi 27 décembre 2024 • Duration 01:02:32

Here is a bit about D. B. in his own words: I grew up in a nuclear family filled with addicts and alcoholics. In 1995, I began a long term relationship with an alcoholic and sex addict. That relationship and eventual marriage led me on a journey with stops in many forms of institutions and hospitals. By the grace of God, I attended my first Al Anon meeting on July 19, 2004 and my first S-Anon meeting on January 13, 2010. In 2023, for a reason I don’t yet see, my S-Anon friends named me Yodanon. I am proud of being named after the wisest (non conference approved) Jedi knight. Finding my voice through public speaking and serving others helps me earn my emotional sobriety, one day at a time. In this Reco12 Speaker Meeting, D. B. speaks with us about making 9th step amends with himself and with his Higher Power.

Reco12 is all about exploring the common threads of addiction and sharing tools and hope from those on a similar path. We gather from diverse backgrounds, faiths, and places to learn and support one another. Our speakers are members of various fellowships, addictions, and afflictions, thus showing the common threads of recovery, no matter our addiction or affliction. As this is the final Reco12 Speaker meeting of the year 2024, I just want to thank you all for another wonderful year, and wish you all a very happy holidays and a happy new year.

Episode 300

vendredi 13 décembre 2024 • Duration 01:03:29

Debi's 1st meeting was in 1981. Her 1st sober date was in 1987. Her current and permanent sober date is 1/31/94. After a long history of trouble at home, school, and the law, from a very young age, including rehab, detox, jail, DUI, psych ward, diagnoses, medication, etc. Debi finally surrendered. She was dry 3.5 years for the 2nd time and ready to suicide. She reached out for help with more humility and desperation than she'd ever before been able to muster and allowed a recovered member to take her through the Big Book & the Steps. Debi finally had the vital spiritual experience the book talks about, did all of her 9th step amends in a meaningful way and now lives in Steps 10-12. Today, Debi S speaks to us on 10th Step Evolution.

Episode 299

mercredi 11 décembre 2024 • Duration 45:00

In today's Afro-Euro Meeting of Reco12, Cristina M from Romania speaks with us on the importance of God's Will in Step 3.

Cristina alcoholic from Romania.
Prior to AA, I tried therapy, self-help books and any methods I could find but nothing worked to stop drinking.
I first came to Alcoholics Anonymous in 2020. After 2 and half years I started drinking again because I was not willing to do the necessary work of the 12 steps.
Finally, on January 2024 I surrendered and begged God to remove my obsession to drink. Asked a recovered member to guide me through the 12 steps.
I am very grateful for my sobriety and I'd love to give back what was given freely to me.
