Janet's Path: From Anxiety to Spiritual Freedom
“Becoming entirely God-reliant is so freeing.”
Ever felt like your anxiety is a sign you're far from peace? Janet certainly did. In this episode of 'Big Book Awakening', she shares her personal reflections on a statement from her early recovery days in Australia: 'The depth of your anxiety is a measure of your distance from God'. Janet, who has long struggled with anxiety and addiction, takes us through her journey of moving from self-reliance to God-reliance.
She opens up about how ego, self-pity, and resentment played roles in her addiction and how embracing the 12 Steps helped her let go of control. Janet's story is one of finding compassion for herself and others, showing that relying on a higher power can be both freeing and transformative. If you're curious about how surrendering to something greater can change your life, this episode is a must-listen.
