AA Live

December and the festive season is here! Dial in as we talk through Step 12 of the AA Programme with our guest Andrew. The conversation identifies how you can carry the message by sharing your story at meetings. We'll explore the act of "giving it away" and how that helps you "keep it" by reinforcing your own commitment to recovery, and that working with others is crucial for maintaining personal sobriety. PLUS, we talk through the pressures of Christmas time—how tensions can ‘build-up’—and if you have concerns around your drinking, offer strategies for handling social gatherings.

Tonight, our focus is on Step 11 of the AA Programme , and how connecting with a Higher Power keeps us on the ‘road to recovery’. Our guest, Tania, strengthened by her life’s journey, holds the floor and shares her pathway to finding clarity, guidance, acceptance and inner peace. A story of resilience that may resonate with you on how essential connections within the AA community can help strengthen our recovery goals.

Join us as we dive into Step 10 of the AA Programme with our guest, Helen. Through our conversation, Helen shares her deep knowledge of this crucial step, emphasising how ongoing self-reflection and accountability maintains her spiritual and emotional health. Plus, we’ll explore the big question: What does emotional sobriety mean?

Tonight our guest Marc shares his journey through early recovery, having just celebrated 6 months of sobriety. We explore how residential treatment at The Bridge became a turning point, and how life challenges including a health crisis led to profound personal transformation. Marc discusses the courage it takes to start over and how the recovery community provides the foundation for rebuilding life one day at a time.
