Nyla shares with Don and Sam about reading Bill's Story in the Big Book and thinking "hello me." Nyla grew up a little girl with grown up secrets, and trust was an issue when she came to AA; but she did feel a pull from the program, found long-term sobriety and now sees how important it is to keep her seat and help the next person.

While we provide the podcast at no charge, we do have expenses. Grapevine is the only AA entity that does not accept contributions, so to support the AA Grapevine Podcast, please subscribe to Grapevine Magazine in print, online, or on the Grapevine app. You can also provide a subscription to someone in need through our "Carry the Message" program or purchase books or other items at aagrapevine.org/store
