Sometimes, life feels like a whirlwind of chaos, doesn't it? Kelley's story is a testament to the unseen battles many face behind the closed doors of addiction and alcoholism.
From the pressures of trying to please an abusive mother, to her struggles with mental health issues, and closeted drinking. Her story is like so many others.
When one day we stop hiding from those that love us and ask for help - the door to healing can finally be unlocked.

Episode Title: Speaking from the Heart: A Night at Mount Royal
One of the gifts I've been granted in sobriety is the ability to put my public speaking talents to good use.

This episode is a testament to the strength found in vulnerability and the beauty of speaking one's truth.Key Highlights:- The transformation from anxiety to confidence in public speaking- Embracing spontaneity and authenticity in sharing oneâs journey- The role of faith and spirituality in recovery- Encouragement for others to find their own voiceTune in to experience a powerful evening filled with hope, resilience, and the importance of using our talents for the greater good.#aa #speakers #alcoholicsanonymous -

Episode Title: A Shot Glass of Recovery: Chapter 7 - Working with Others
In Episode 35 of A Shot Glass of Recovery, Lisa M takes a deep dive into Chapter 7 of the Big Book of Alcoholics AnonymousâWorking with Others (pg. 94-97). This insightful chapter provides guidance on how to be a sponsor and work with newcomers in recovery.
Lisa highlights key reminders from the text, such as the importance of the prospect having a genuine desire to stop drinking and recognizing that we cannot work the program for someone else. Recovery is a program of action, and sometimes the most hopeless and desperate among us become the luckiest. Through their desperation, they find two of the most valuable gifts: honesty and willingness.
These qualities are crucial tools that help us take the necessary steps to achieve and maintain sobriety, one day at a time.

Dave dives into how this voice swings between extremes, inflating your ego one moment ("Don't they know who you are?") and tearing you down the next ("You're a worthless waste of space"). Listen as Dave explores how recognizing and managing this inner critic is essential to staying grounded and committed to recovery.
