Elizabeth M. from Kahaluu, HI speaking at the Hawaii Annual Convention in Honolulu, HI - November 1st 2012 Visit our merch and help support the channel🧡 Sober Sunrise Merch Visit our website - Sober-Sunrise.com Elizabeth shares a powerful journey of transformation through Alcoholics Anonymous, describing how a childhood sense of emptiness, early drinking, crime, incarceration, and the devastating loss of her children led her to a bottom marked by despair, homelessness, and repeated arrests, until a moment of surrender in 1999 opened the door to recovery; through AA, she found not only sobriety but identity, purpose, and belonging, rebuilding her life through service, sponsorship, and deep spiritual growth, ultimately becoming a trusted servant within the AA structure, regaining her legal rights, earning college degrees, building a respected professional career, and raising children with love and responsibility—her story stands as a living example that freedom from the bondage of self is possible, that past actions do not define a person’s worth, and that a life once ruled by chaos can be transformed into one of service, dignity, and profound gratitude. Music: Deep by KaizanBlu
