Crafting Your Unique Path to Sobriety: Guy Kettelhack's Wisdom

We need not rigidly follow any other aspects of alcoholics anonymous or twelve step programs. Kettlehack reminds us that we always have permission to make our programs our own.
Imagine stepping into a world where there’s no single roadmap to follow. That’s the essence of Guy Kettelhack’s advice in this episode of 'Recovery Road'. Drawing from his book, 'First-Year Sobriety: When All That Changes Is Everything', Kettelhack shares some refreshing perspectives on approaching life in the early stages of sobriety. He emphasizes that there's no one-size-fits-all method to recovery.
Whether you're someone who thrives on structure or prefers a more open-ended approach, there's room for you in the Twelve Step program. The only real requirement? A genuine desire to stop drinking or using drugs. This flexibility can be both liberating and daunting, especially for newcomers who are used to rigid guidelines. But Kettelhack reassures us that it's okay to find what works best for you.
Whether you meticulously follow the steps or take a more relaxed route, the goal remains the same: continuous personal growth and betterment. Dive into this episode for a comforting reminder that your journey to sobriety is uniquely yours, and that's perfectly okay.
