In this episode of Recovery Radio Network, Charlie shares his experiences from a 1991 conference, mixing humour with hard-hitting truths about alcoholism and recovery. His tales range from light-hearted anecdotes about cultural misunderstandings to profound insights into the nature of addiction and the path to sobriety.
Charlie's reflections on the early days of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) offer a fascinating glimpse into the evolution of the programme and its enduring relevance.

Through Charlie's eyes, you'll see how the principles of AA have helped countless individuals reclaim their lives.
His stories about personal lows, such as losing jobs and family, are balanced with uplifting moments of spiritual awakening and redemption. Charlie emphasises the importance of following the Big Book's guidance and staying true to the original steps laid out by AA's founders. His message is clear: recovery is possible, but it requires commitment, honesty, and a willingness to embrace change. Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, Charlie's words will resonate deeply.
