Finding Sobriety: Kansas City's Paseo Group Alcathon with We Agnostics
“Whatever works for any individual person, as far as I'm concerned, is what we need to support.”
Picture this: a room filled with people, all sharing their stories of struggle and triumph over addiction. That's the scene at Kansas City's Paseo Group's annual alcathon, a 37-year tradition during the Christmas holidays. This year, John S. from Beyond Belief Sobriety is joined by Julie K. and Gregg O. from We Agnostics Kansas City. They dive into their personal battles with addiction, the ups and downs of recovery, and the often complex task of mending broken relationships.
But what makes this episode stand out is its focus on the secular side of recovery. Julie and Gregg open up about their experiences in AA without a traditional higher power, emphasizing the importance of finding what works for each person. They also tackle pressing issues like underage drinking, mental health, and homelessness, making this conversation both timely and deeply moving.
If you're looking for a dose of inspiration and practical advice on navigating sobriety outside conventional paths, this episode is a must-listen.
