AA Taught Me to be an Adult [Season 7, Episode 12]

Heather joins Sam and Olis and describes her introduction to AA, and how it took her 13 years to be convinced about her alcoholism and the AA program of recovery. Heather says she complicated herself right out of the rooms at times, and that a super-strict sponsor helped her find her way. Heather, Olis and Sam discuss A Newcomer Asks question about taking credit for one's sobriety. There's also an announcement about the upcoming International Online Intergroup Convention in October.While we provide the podcast at no charge, we do have expenses.
