Light Into Dark Places - Fr Terry 1985
Friday Jul 25, 2025
Friday Jul 25, 2025
My “Light Into Dark Places” series is to pay tribute to the speakers who carried light into my very, very dark years. Many don't resonate with me today, but that is not the case here. I have quoted Father Terry to my sponsees so often that I jokingly refer to him as my long-lost husband. I have several workshops by him (and others) on My Recovery Tools google drive.

Conversation with Sabrina - Disassociation & Victim Identity
Monday Jul 21, 2025
Monday Jul 21, 2025
I'm very proud of Sabrina and I for this exploratory conversation. We talked about what is disassociation, what isn't, and where she and I fall on that scale. We then talked about being overly invested in our victim identity and how to shift out of that. We really enjoyed unpacking this topic and I'm proud of us both for how far we have traveled along our recovery roads.
Sabrina, you are an angel and I'm grateful for all that you bring to these podcasts!

This 2018 talk by Earl H on the meaning of AA's 3-sided triangle of "Recovery, Service, and Unity" is a personal favorite. I hope you enjoy it, too!

Step One - Recalibrating My Brain with Chani K
Thursday Jul 03, 2025
Thursday Jul 03, 2025
I am a former devotee of the Queen of Control and step one is admitting I have no control. So, if I've fallen head first into a loaf of bread, my disease brain's reflexive move is to come up with a PLAN--a plan to regain control. Not good. I need an immediate antidote and since 2009, I found one. Chani from the Los Angeles OA website really understands the shape of my disease. I merged all three of her talks from 2009, 2016, and 2017 into one audio file. Enjoy!
As a former devotee, I like this word:

Tradition Study - Tradition Twelve - OA Principle of Spirituality
Tuesday Jun 24, 2025
Tuesday Jun 24, 2025
We finished! It only took us 3 years and 8 months, but we did it!
Tradition 12 of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) states, "Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our traditions, ever reminding us to place principles before personalities."
The original tradition study speaker workshop was no longer available, so we listened to Peggy M's talk on Tradition 12, which we all enjoyed.
