Understanding Tradition Three: Identity in Recovery
“So I was in a meeting where a relative newcomer shared about their fasting. I was like, well, you know, because I had no attachment to it, no experience of it, no, whatever. The purpose is to make sure that the, the road is open for those who want to follow it, that that line that we talked about.”

In this episode of the Recovery Crone Podcast, RecoveryCrone and her friends break down Tradition Three of the AA/OA 12-step program. They take you on a journey through the history of this tradition, shedding light on its evolution and the changes in membership requirements over time.
This isn't just a dry history lesson; it's a heartfelt conversation about identity, belonging, and the barriers that can hinder recovery.

They also tackle the issue of gatekeeping and how it can be a roadblock to those seeking help.
