Laura McKowen's Journey with AA: Reflections and Revelations
“For somebody that wants to have a mature adult open-ended, good-hearted, critical faith- and this is a faith, and I'll explain what I mean by that- you have to conduct the most vigorous and relentless conversation that you can have with your own tradition.”
Laura McKowen and Holly Whitaker dive into an honest conversation about Laura's evolving relationship with Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) in this episode of the HOME Podcast. Laura opens up about her initial beliefs when she first joined AA, how her views have shifted over time, and where she stands now as she approaches three years of sobriety.
The discussion touches on the importance of maintaining a critical faith and the pitfalls of relying solely on willpower or intellectualizing the journey to sobriety. Laura also highlights the benefits of attending AA meetings and questions whether one needs to identify as an alcoholic to quit drinking. The episode is rich with insights into sobriety, addiction, and personal growth, making it a must-listen for anyone navigating their own recovery or supporting a loved one through theirs.
