Joe explores how the Position of Neutrality, a way of living suggested by the founders of Alcoholics Anonymous, can be a lifeline for those struggling with alcoholism.
Through his raw and honest conversation, he emphasizes the power of actions over words in proving change to skeptics and loved ones who have been hurt by addiction. Joe shares his own experiences and highlights the importance of compassion and understanding towards those who doubt your transformation. He stresses that showing, not just telling, is key to convincing skeptics that you’ve truly changed. It’s about living in a way that reflects your commitment to sobriety and personal growth.
