Here's a NON-Alcoholic Cheers to recovery! 🥂

Episode Title: Karolina from the UK

Karolina is a woman just heading into her 4th year of a life recovered. It's funny because if you knew her at 2 years into her journey of recovery you wouldn't think these two women were the same person! Just goes to show a LOT can happen on our journey on the road to recovery.

Karolina's story is not unique, save for a few minor details (husband, kid) her story could be my story. We came here got dry before we got sober before we got emotionally sober and got on the path to spiritually fit.

Time takes time and God works on us when we let go and let God.

Let's listen in.

Episode Title: Chapter 8 - To Wives

Probably one of THE most loathed chapters for women in recovery because behind those feelings is a world of hurt and feeling left out and misunderstood. We were the alcoholic wives and many of us thought this chapter didn't concern us. But what is it Herbert Spencer said about "contempt prior to investigation"?

It leaves us in a world of ignorance.

So let's keep an open mind and get into it!

p.s. replace "husband" with "the alcoholic" in your mind....it helps.

Episode Title: LeShay from Florida

LeShay is a woman on the move. She has been sober for 13 years at the time of this recording. Leshay's message today is centered on the core principles of Alcoholics Anonymous. She seamlessly weaves in her own experience, blending it with the wisdom of AA literature. She has a very busy life while still managing to be accountable to a sponsor, sponsees, and to MY home group AA Solution Seekers as our GSR for area 83.

Her whole message today is like a big book study and ultimately relatable to herself as an alcoholic.

Let's listen in.

Episode Title: Henry O

Henry O got sober in 2005 and has been active in Alcoholics Anonymous ever since. He has a sponsor—who knows he is his sponsor—he sponsors other men, and he carries the AA message inside prison walls.

Originally from Dublin, Ireland, Henry now lives in Warrington, UK. As a young lad, he was caught drinking at a school dance. In an attempt to teach him a lesson about the dangers of alcohol, his father took him to the pub the following week, making him drink one-for-one with him. Henry swore he’d never drink again—but as the hangover faded, excitement for the next pub visit took its place. His father’s plan had backfired.

Today, Henry speaks about the mental twist and blank spot that every alcoholic experiences. He shares his journey from loss and incomprehensible demoralization to living sober, recovered, and free—a changed man, thanks to Alcoholics Anonymous.

Episode Title: A Shot Glass of Recovery: Chapter 7 - Working with Others....the never ending chapter!

In Episode 40 of A Shot Glass of Recovery, we finish off Chapter 7 of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous—Working with Others (pg. 102).

I believe this is one of the most important Chapters in the book...next to the Doctors opinion, Bill's story, There is a Solution, More about alcoholism, We Agnostics, How it works, and Into Action....see what I did there?

And still to come we have the chapters that begin to teach us to live life on life's terms: To Wives, The family afterward, to employers, A vision for you!

Grab those highlighters and lets get at er.

Here's a NON-Alcoholic Cheers to recovery! 🥂

Lorien is just shy of two years sober. In her story, she opens up about her struggles with relapse, rehab, and working with multiple sponsors throughout her recovery journey. She reflects on the mistakes she made along the way, sharing the lessons she’s learned. One of her most important realizations is that the steps can guide all areas of life, and it’s crucial to be kind to yourself—recovery is unique to each person. She also acknowledges how God continually did for her what she couldn’t do for herself. Here, she tells her story.

In Episode 39 of A Shot Glass of Recovery, we dive into Chapter 7 of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous—Working with Others (pg. 99).

A stark reminder that we do not need to keep our family, our jobs, our money in order to get sober...in fact, some of us need to lose it ALL before we become truly willing to surrender.
