I realised I had a disease, but I didn't become that way from marrying an alcoholic; I had felt that way all my life.
Caroline, a grateful Al-Anon member, takes centre stage in this episode of Recovery Radio Network, sharing her journey of transformation. From a life overshadowed by co-dependency and fear to one filled with joy and self-discovery, Caroline's story is both relatable and inspiring. She recounts her struggles, from being a non-functioning adult overwhelmed by simple decisions to finding peace and purpose through the twelve-step programme. Her candid reflections on family dynamics, personal growth, and the power of attitude shifts are eye-opening.
Caroline’s anecdotes about her family, particularly her children stepping into parental roles, add a layer of depth and humour to her narrative. She also touches on the importance of compassion and forgiveness, especially towards her father, highlighting how these emotions have played a crucial role in her recovery. The episode doesn’t shy away from the raw realities of living with addiction and co-dependency but offers a hopeful message about the possibility of change.
Caroline’s vibrant storytelling, peppered with moments of light-heartedness and profound realisations, makes this episode a must-listen for anyone on a recovery journey or supporting someone who is. By the end, you'll find yourself reflecting on your own attitudes and how they shape your life. Tune in to hear how Caroline’s life transformed through the power of the twelve steps and how you can apply these lessons to your own journey.
