Episode 156 Becky T's Story

On March 23, 2011 I walked into my first AA meeting with a true third tradition in my pocket, a desire to stop. It was a bumpy four years to my current sobriety date... Becky was the first person that I ever met who stuck her hand out and said “Hi, my name is ______, and I am an alcoholic” I hesitantly said it back, and I can say today, that truly didn’t know if I was or not, I didn't really know what alcoholism was. Becky saw me from the beginning, she saw me disappear and come back, in this episode she states seeing a dark state at times, and I can promise you there were some very dark times....And she saw the magic happen in 2015 also. She’s been a beautiful maternal type presence in my recovery the entire ride, we have a spiritual connection, it's been there from day one. Her story is different from most, saying a lot about that would take away from the episode, so take a listen, and Enjoy!
