RECO12

Sheryl S had a spiritual experience on May 12, 2022 through working the 12 Step Program outlined in the Big Book of AA. Since then, Sheryl has been journeying in recovery from food addiction and codependency through a spiritual solution that has set her free. She will talk about moving from suffering to serenity as she shares her experience, strength, and hope.

Reco12 is an open-to-all addictions and afflictions organization, dedicated to exploring the common threads of the differing manifestations of alcoholism; sharing tools, and offering hope from those walking a similar path. So whether your “thing” is alcohol, drugs, sex, gambling, food, … whatever… you are home here.  We gather from diverse backgrounds, faiths, and locations to learn from and support one another. Our speakers come from various fellowships and experiences, demonstrating the universal principles of recovery.  Reco12 is not allied or affiliated with any specific 12 Step fellowship.

Adam S., has been walking in the sunlight of the Spirit since his Aquarian sobriety date of January 26, 2018, living in permanent abstinence from all mind-altering substances, one day at a time. Recovery is Adam’s path of awakening, rooted in the Twelve Steps, the Big Book, a Higher Power of his own understanding, and the daily choice to align with truth instead of illusion, love instead of fear. As a grateful double winner in AA and Al-Anon, he has learned that emotional sobriety is the next frontier, and every day is Day One in the work of freedom from emotional inebriation, allowing his spirit to lead where his ego once did. Adam believes that we’re here to remember who we really are through honesty, humility, service, and conscious contact with the Divine, carrying the message through the way we live more than the words we speak. As the Big Book reminds us, “We are not cured of alcoholism. What we really have is a daily reprieve contingent on the maintenance of our spiritual condition.”

Ash originally found recovery in 2015 with local meetings. After leaving support groups when her son was born, she returned in 2023 to find more support than ever through zoom meetings. There, she met people who were happy, joyous and free. She knew she desperately wanted what they had, so she began to do what they did. And she will always be grateful for those who have gone before her.

Andy's sobriety date is October 21, 2005 and his Home group is currently the same group that he joined when he first came in- the Morning After Group of Westwood, New Jersey, now both on Zoom and in person. AA saved Andy's life- He says that he can never give back to A.A. what’s been given to him but he can try one day at a time. As the result of the 12 Steps-being protected by god, at home with self, and connected to a community, Andy has moved from a taker to a giver- from a greedy soul towards having a servants heart. The journey has been generous- the job god has Andy doing is to engage another alcoholic in spiritual activity so he can live a useful life today.  His topic today is A New World Came Into View.

Glen Kerby is a teacher, creative producer, recovery advocate, and one of the founders of The Simple Plan. Inspired by the work of counselor and longtime 12-step member Ken M, The Simple Plan (https://thesimpleplan.app/) was created to help people simplify recovery, reduce overwhelm, and build practical daily rhythms that support healing and growth.

With more than four decades in recovery and years spent serving in inner-city ministry, Glen has dedicated his life to helping people move from brokenness toward restoration through faith, mindset shifts, music, meditation, and simple daily practices. He is the author of The Power of Brokenness (https://amzn.to/43iDtVi ) and currently leads Creative House Studios, where he is developing multilingual music, guided meditation, and recovery resources designed to support emotional healing and spiritual growth.

Glen believes that lasting recovery is found one day at a time through simple actions, honest reflection, meaningful connection, and a growing relationship with God and other people seeking freedom.
