When I saw and learned about the we in this program, it helped me know that I wasn't by myself. What we have in common is the solution, not just the problem.
Ever wondered how the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous can guide you to sobriety? In this episode of Sober Cast, Kate and Callie break down Chapter 2, 'There is a Solution', offering a page-by-page study that's both enlightening and practical. Hosted by The Big Book Awakening, a women's group that meets every Saturday in St. Paul, Minnesota, this discussion is tailored for all who identify as women and/or LGBTQ+.
Kate and Callie kick things off by sharing how the collective 'we' in the AA program helped Kate feel less isolated in her struggle with alcoholism. They stress that what unites them isn't just the problem but the shared solution. The conversation then shifts to understanding alcoholism as a disease that centers in the mind, highlighting the importance of grasping the problem before moving on to solutions.
You'll hear about the power of self-examination and admitting one's flaws, a process that demands humility but promises growth. The hosts also delve into the spiritual journey, explaining how it requires effort but leads to extraordinary outcomes that one can't achieve alone. They emphasize the significance of acknowledging one's powerlessness and believing in a higher power. Kate and Callie also discuss the crucial choice between seeking power and seeking peace, underscoring the need for a reliable plan for living.
Using vivid metaphors like the 'flimsy reed' versus a 'powerful design', they paint a clear picture of what effective recovery looks like. By the end of the episode, listeners are reminded that the strength to overcome alcoholism is within them. If you're looking for a thorough yet relatable guide to Chapter 2 of the Big Book, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to gain insights that could be pivotal in your journey to sobriety.
