Susan's Seven-Year Sobriety: A Tale of Transformation and Service

The step program of recovery, which is discussed at all of our meetings and which is outlined in the big book of Alcoholics Anonymous, is how we get sober and maintain our sobriety just one day at a time.
Have you ever wondered what it takes to turn your life around after years of battling alcohol addiction? Meet Susan, whose story is one of resilience, hope, and community support. In this episode of the Alcoholics Anonymous Radio Show, Susan opens up about her seven-year journey to sobriety. Her drinking started innocently enough with weekend binges, but it gradually spiraled into a daily struggle that she couldn't escape.
It wasn't until the last few years of her drinking that she realized she had a serious problem and needed to make a change. That's when she found Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), and her life began to transform. Susan shares how the AA step program became her lifeline, offering her a structured path to recovery, one day at a time.
She talks about the pivotal role her small children played in keeping her from drinking excessively, but once they grew up, she found herself slipping back into old habits. This is where AA's community support made all the difference. Encouraged by a friend, Susan took on the role of registrar treasurer for a convention in Christchurch. Initially hesitant, she found the experience deeply rewarding and an essential part of her recovery journey.
Today, Susan is seven years sober and profoundly grateful for the support and guidance she's received from AA. Her story is a powerful reminder that addiction can affect anyone, but with the right support system, recovery is possible. If you or someone you know is struggling with alcoholism, tune in to hear Susan's inspiring journey and learn more about how Alcoholics Anonymous can offer hope and a path to sobriety.
