Ep 140 Six Months Speaking Out About AA Changed My Life
About this episode
Six months ago I finally hit publish on my first video about leaving AA—and it changed everything.
What started as fear turned into freedom, growth, and a whole new life. In this episode I reflect on six months of dissenting out loud, what I’ve learned from deconstructing Alcoholics Anonymous, and why this work matters so much. From 123 videos to playlists on AA mind control, cult comparisons, grieving, and alternatives, we’ve built a massive resource for anyone ready to get AA out of their head (playlists linked below)
