SAFE RECOVERY

I attended AA for 36 years. Abstinent. After I worked the steps in and out 3 times in a row ( over the years I did them over again as well) I found myself lacking and seeing "the steps" for what they were. Pretty useless and in many ways harmfull for a young teen like myself who was already good at blaming myself. At 4 years sober and 22 years old I began my quest for real help and answers. At first I read books like The Greatest Secret in the World by Og Mandino, then I began doing outside spitiual healings which did help. I excercised regularly and I searched for truth. Still I suffered with great emotional pain that no one in AA had any answers for  and in fact made me feel worse at times. I will share and discuss the many paths, books, theraputic means I took that finaly got me to a place where I realized I had childhood trauma, I got help from a real PhD, I did rage work and then found out that I was NEVER BROKEN. Two shorts years after studing TM or Quantum Mediation, I left AA never to return and now know for myself that AA is a very dangerous , unhealthy, toxic, unsafe, religious type cultish thing. I am not calling it a "program or a fellowship or a support group" my expereince is proof that AA is very close to all the terms that would say it is a "cult"!

Did you get a DUI? We will help you if you are in Los Angeles. Know your rights. The 1st amendment says our government and religion need to be kept separate. So how and why is this happening?

 Drug Court began in 1989 in Florida and then in 1990 in California. Listen, edcuate and call us for some great literature that we will send you  and you too can change what is happening in our Courts. Monica Richardson is an advocate for change and freedom from Court Ordering to any 12 step meeting. 

Know your rights! Fight Back!

In an interview with Ken Anderson he said to me  "saying AA is spiritual not religious is like saying its "White not Snowflake" ...I laughed outloud! 

Join Monica Richardson and Addiction Counselor Laura Thompkins for a 1 hour discussion on Religious vs Spiritual. The courts know what AA is already and I wonder what it will take for average citizens to get that they have rights and that no one can court order you to a religious AA pod ...I think we have a constitution still....yea we do.......A discussion about what religious freedom means in the USA. AND if you get a DUI, they can not force you to go there. But they do . What makes AA religious. Listen to what we have uncovered and they will never be able to say...No it's not religious...it's spiritual!

Join host Monica Richardson Filmmamker for The 13th Step with guest Matthew Leichter for a1 hour show discussing a new alternative to 12 step programs.

Join Monica Richardson as she interviews Doctor Michael Langan, who knows first hand what is going on in his field. This will make your head spin! AA is embedded with our research, our medicine and forcing Doctors to join their 1935 religious cult for behavior issues around alochol.  WOW in 2014. Even I'm shocked by this one.

Join me for a 1 hour show about Sexually predatory behavior in AA meetings and its culture.
