In this engaging episode of 'Position of Neutrality', Joe McDonald dives into the transformative promises of Alcoholics Anonymous. These promises, as detailed in the book 'Alcoholics Anonymous: The Story of how Many Thousands of Men and Women Have Recovered From Alcoholism', are more than just hopeful words—they're achievable milestones for those who commit to the program and work diligently on their recovery.
Joe shines a spotlight on Step 10, emphasizing the crucial role of self-examination.

By giving back, you not only grow personally but also contribute to the collective strength of the community. This episode serves as a heartfelt reminder that the promises of A.A. are within reach for anyone willing to put in the effort. It's not just about staying sober; it's about achieving a fulfilling life where alcohol no longer holds sway.
