Step One in Overeaters Anonymous: Embracing Powerlessness with Recovery Crone
“Once we have become teachable, we can give up old thought and behavior patterns that have failed us in the past, beginning with our attempts to control our eating and our weight.”
Ever wondered what it takes to admit powerlessness over an addiction? In this episode of the Recovery Crone Podcast, the host takes you on a journey through the first step of the Overeaters Anonymous (OA) 12x12 program. This step is all about recognizing that food addiction has made life unmanageable and that willpower alone isn't enough to overcome it. The episode dives into personal stories and struggles, highlighting how difficult it can be to accept this truth.

By acknowledging their unique relationship with food, members become open to new ways of thinking and behaving. This episode isn't just for those battling food addiction; it's for anyone looking to understand the power of acceptance in the recovery process.
Tune in for an honest, heartfelt discussion that might just change your perspective on addiction and recovery.
