It was a moment of clarity and it interrupted enough that you could get going again.
Ever wondered what it takes to turn your life around after hitting rock bottom? In this episode of the Boiled Owl AA Recovery Podcast, Carol opens up about her tumultuous journey from heavy drinking to finding solace in sobriety. Carol's story isn't just about the highs and lows of addiction; it's about the moments that forced her to face the truth.
She recounts how she used to swipe Don's beer at parties and how her job's free alcohol supply only fueled her addiction. But it was a DUI and the painful realization of how much she had hurt her husband that became her wake-up call. Carol's candid discussion reveals the raw and often challenging road to recovery.
She talks about her first AA meeting on December 10th, 1992, and how the support from her sponsor and the connections she made at AA meetings helped her confront her fears and self-centeredness. This episode also touches on the role of spirituality in AA, emphasizing the importance of after-meeting interactions and personal growth through sobriety. Carol's resilience and determination are truly inspiring, making this episode a must-listen for anyone seeking hope and guidance on their own path to recovery.
