How do people find strength in their journey to sobriety? On this reflective Sunday morning, Alyssa, an alcoholic in recovery, invites listeners to pause and embrace a moment of silence for those still battling addiction. With a heartfelt rendition of the Serenity Prayer, she sets the tone for a day grounded in acceptance and courage. The episode delves into the concept of 'True Ambition,' challenging the conventional notion of success.
Alyssa shares a personal story of how her ambitions were once driven by the desire for external validation, only to realise that true fulfilment comes from living humbly and purposefully under the grace of a higher power. Drawing from the wisdom of the '12 Steps and 12 Traditions,' Alyssa reflects on the transformative power of acceptance, hope, and love. She candidly discusses her journey from wearing a mask of pretence to embracing authenticity through the fellowship of AA.
The episode also touches on the importance of selfless prayer, urging listeners to align their requests with divine will rather than personal agendas. Ending with the Lord's Prayer, Alyssa emphasises the communal aspect of recovery, reminding everyone that sobriety is a collective journey supported by shared faith and mutual encouragement. Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a gentle reminder that each day is an opportunity for gratitude and growth.
