Steps 8 & 9: Heartfelt Stories of Making Amends

I let her [my mother] and then after that, my mother began. She started to come back into my life. She started to become my mother again.
Picture this: three voices, each with a unique story, coming together to discuss the life-changing steps of making amends. In this episode of Sober Cast, we dive into Steps 8 & 9 with a trio of speakers from the 2nd annual New Freedom 12-Step Workshop. Unlike many workshops where each speaker tackles a single step, these speakers share their experiences and insights on both steps, offering a richer perspective on the journey to sobriety.
These steps are all about repairing the past and building a better future. You'll hear emotional tales of reaching out to estranged family members, the delicate art of making heartfelt apologies, and the profound impact these actions can have on one's life. One speaker recounts the touching moment when making amends with their mother rekindled their relationship, saying, "I let her [my mother] and then after that, my mother began. She started to come back into my life.
She started to become my mother again". This episode isn't just about the mechanics of Steps 8 & 9; it's about the human side of recovery. The speakers highlight the importance of approaching amends with genuine intent and the incredible peace of mind that comes from taking responsibility for one's actions. Their stories serve as powerful reminders that making amends isn't just a step in a program—it's a step towards healing and personal growth.
Whether you're new to the 12 steps or a seasoned veteran, this episode offers valuable insights and heartfelt stories that will resonate with anyone on the path to sobriety. Tune in to hear how making amends can transform relationships and bring a sense of peace that goes beyond sobriety.
