Join Rachel and Andrea, just the girls this time, as they discuss the importance of "Getting Into Action" and the steps you can take before or after a relapse. The points they cover are as follows:

  • Realize it’s only a temporary insanity.
  • Dial numbers. Call your sponsor, sober friends or a family member for help.
  • Surround yourself with people who got your back.
  • Have an accountability partner. Make a plan!
  • Assess your current circumstances: who are your friends, intimate partner, and mind set.
  • Play the IF game: What IF you took it this far?
  • Think about the people you’ll hurt along the way.
  • Think about all that you worked for and what you stand to loose.
  • Go into a meeting ASAP and talk about it.
  • Get honest with your sponsor and rework the steps.
  • If all fails, get on your knees and pray to the God of your understanding.
  • And if you do succumb to it, get right back on the horse and pick up a white chip. Sometimes the same mistakes have to happen so you can stand firmer on your feet.

  • Holding on to secrets.
  • Lying and feeding people garbage.

Jonathan & Rachel bring up a very serious topic and discuss it in 3 parts. The first one being on what you can implement to avoid a Relapse.
Notes from Podcast:

  1. Take care of yourself. It’s progression not perfection.
  2. Don’t isolate yourself. Alcohol breaths isolation – feeling of loneliness, anxiety and boredom can sneak up. Go to meetings, meetings, meetings (online/offline)
  3. Call another alcoholic to have your own little mini session.
  4. Surround yourself with winners/ big influencers. As the old saying goes “Show me who your friends are, and I’ll tell you who you are.” Or, what your future will look like.
  5. Do service/speak at meetings/step outside yourself. It really works!
  6. Don’t let a relationship rule you and make them your higher power. It’s a sure way to fall off the wagon and loose yourself in it.
  7. Don’t depend on anything outside yourself to fill up that void.
  8. Do things that make YOU happy.
  9. Work the 12 steps in all of your affairs on a daily basis.
  10. Find your higher power, YOUR CHI, by practicing prayer and mediation.
  11. Learn to quiet your mind and overcome the ego.
  12. Be grateful for that you have and live in the present moment.
