In this episode of Grit and Grace, Tonya Bruton closes out Recovery Month with a powerful reflection on Step 12: “Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to others, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.” Tonya unpacks what it means to live in purpose by serving others, carrying the message of hope, and remembering that recovery is ongoing. Through personal reflections from the Prayze Factor Awards and her own journey, she reminds us that service is both a responsibility and a privilege—and that we keep what we have by giving it away.👉 Whether you’re in recovery or simply seeking encouragement, this episode will inspire you to find your own way to live out Step 12 with faith and grace.
