Talkin' Trash • Episode 103

This is most definitely episode 103 despite Tim's efforts to confuse the shit out of everybody. We took a look at step 8 of the A.A.'s 12 steps. We explored what it means, how to approach it and how it applies to everybody not just those working the steps. The experts explained that the steps are meant to be done in order, that's why they're numbered that way. Pretty simple concept. In working the program of A.A., you'll be taken through these steps with a sponsor, someone that knows their stuff. For those not in A.A., or just attending meetings, or just doing their own thing, this is a principle that applies to all walks of life. We've hurt people, we've done things that require an apology with action. A big part of making this list is owning your part in the mistakes you've made. As addicts we tend to blame everyone else for our mistakes. It is important to own our misgivings before listing who we owe amends to. And sometimes all you can do is a living amends. Bella J. joined us once again to check in and do some clean time. Always great to see her smiling face and attitude towards life given the challenges she's overcome. It's a jam-packed confusing episode so get in there.
