Listen "Step 2 - Sam (Al-Anon)"
Episode Synopsis
Sam wasn’t sure he believed in god or a 'Higher Power' and thought he might have to give up on Al-Anon because of that. Sam shares how his sponsor gave him a new perspective that allowed him to explore not knowing but still trusting in something greater than himself, even if it was the group of people in a meeting. His trust became an important part of his recovery- and still is.
‘Having that concept of a High Power takes the pressure off…And that’s such a relief. Because I’ve been doing my best all these years but it hasn’t always been working out great. So maybe I can just relax a little bit, keep trying to do my best, but it’s just not all on me anymore, somehow.’
Step 2: Came to believe that a Power great than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
