What drives someone to embrace change in the face of adversity? This episode of AA Grapevine's Podcast brings you the compelling stories of Jonny and Penny, who share their unique journeys through sobriety and service. Jonny, a district webmaster and Grapevine chair, opens up about how his involvement in AA and its technology initiatives has been pivotal in his recovery.
At just 11 days sober, Jonny faced the tragic loss of his brother, yet the AA community's support and the simple act of picking up the phone kept him on track. His story highlights the importance of embracing change and community support in the recovery process. Meanwhile, Penny's tale is a testament to the power of service within AA.

Hosts Don and Sam guide listeners through these heartfelt narratives, peppered with humour and genuine warmth. They also discuss how technology is transforming AA's outreach efforts, making support more accessible than ever.
