Breaking Down the Twelve Steps

from Chasing Heroine: Addiction Recovery and Sobriety · host Jeannine Coulter

Today is a little different! I’m sharing a recording from a twelve-step meeting where I gave the lead a few years ago. It’s a simple, honest breakdown of the Twelve Steps and the process of actually working them, not as a rulebook or a rigid formula, but as a deeply personal experience.I’ve always felt that the steps are essentially free, personalized therapy. They ask us to look at our patterns, our pain, our responsibility, and our capacity for change with a level of honesty that most of us were never taught. In this lead, I walk through how the steps build on one another, why they matter, and what they’ve given me beyond just staying sober.Whether you’re new to recovery, thinking about working the steps, coming back after time away, or just curious about why they’ve helped so many people for so long, this episode offers a clear, human look at the process and why it still works.No perfection. No preaching. Just one addict’s experience with a framework that helped turn survival into something that finally felt like a life. 🌱If you or a loved one are navigating substance use or mental health concerns, please check out our sponsor ⁠Worthy Wellness Center⁠, a luxury mental health and SUD treatment center in San Diego, CA.DM me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Message me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen AD FREE & workout with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email me [email protected] you next week!
