Position of Neutrality: Engaging with Authentic Recovery Support in Steps 5, 6, & 7 AA
About this episode
Join Joe McDonald as he reads from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, discussing the importance of honesty and engagement with authentic recovery support in Steps 5, 6, and 7 AA. Joe highlights the significance of finding the right support to increase the chances of recovery success.
“Small wonder many in the medical profession have a low opinion of alcoholics and their chance for recovery. We must be entirely honest with somebody if we expect to live long or happily in this world. We here at New Freedom are developing a new product to help with that engagement. They say small wonder people in the medical profession have a low opinion of alcoholics and their chance for recovery. And modern recovery has about a three percent success rate, maybe as high as 10 depending on who you ask. But if you engage for 28 weeks or longer, the odds go to 70 percent and higher. So what we want you to understand is we want you to engage with people who understand who are going to share their experience, not their opinion.”
Joe’s discussion underscores the value of connecting with those who share their experiences authentically, providing the necessary support for a successful recovery journey.
