In this episode of In the Circle, we explore an amazing inquiry about the 12 steps from Amit. He asks: Can the 12 steps be useful for people who do not have substance use addictions?

Can they be helpful for people who experience trauma, depression, or anxiety? 

I credit the 12 steps with saving my life from severe drug addiction. At the same time, I feel the 12 steps are but one possible entry point to a life beyond addiction. 

This thought-provoking inquiry allows us to explore what the 12 steps are, what they are not, and why I believe everyone should take the time to explore what the 12 steps have to offer. 

Tommy discusses

• Why we follow the 12 steps
• Are the 12 steps for everyone?
• How to live a life beyond addiction
• The first step to recovery
• How to let go of the past and start anew
