Light Into Dark Places - Fr Gavin

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, which is fine. I don't need them today like I did 13 years ago. In gratitude, I want to share their stories with you.

Sheila J's Love & Forgiveness workshop was vital to healing resentments towards my perpetrators. I'm very grateful for her courage for putting on this workshop and for the Los Angeles intergroup for making it available on their website.

Light Into Dark Places - Fr Terry 1985

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

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!

Step One - Recalibrating My Brain with Chani K

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:
