So I learned through this journey and asking questions of myself and other people that any attempt to control someone is based on my fear.
Ever wondered how a sponsor can change your life in Alcoholics Anonymous? In this episode, Dave M from Sidcup, UK, shares his experience in a workshop held in London back in December 2011.

Dave doesn't just talk about the Big Book; he lives it.
His journey to sobriety is filled with moments where the guidance of his sponsor made all the difference. He emphasizes that trying to control someone else's recovery is rooted in fear and instead encourages listeners to let go and trust the process. His insights are not just theoretical; they come from lived experience, making them all the more impactful. The episode also touches on the dangers of ego and control in sobriety.
