David G - The Power of Revealing Self - Meeting 298

RECO12

12/06/24 • 62 min

David G from Oklahoma is Sober member of AA since 08-08-1994 having had a life changing spiritual experience in 1995 as a result of the 12 steps as outlined in our Big Book he soon learned he had no idea how grow & develop with it. He found that yesterday’s miracle wasn’t sufficient for today! Other things began to compete for that experience & they eventually won out. In 2019 he reached an emotional bottom in sobriety. He suffered from a spiritual illness brought by a human condition - self. He was freed in 2019 & has continued to grow and walk emotionally free ever since! David is also a co-host on the Reco12 Big Book Roundtable that releases every Thursday morning on your favorite podcast platform. Today David speaks on the power of revealing self.

Matt and Carriss D - Emotional Sobriety and Restoring Intimacy - Meeting 285

RECO12

10/11/24 • 59 min

Matt and Carriss speak to us today on emotional sobriety and restoring intimacy.
Although sexaholism was pervasive in Matt's family of origin, he didn't know there was a name for it until his wife's own sexaholism brought him to S-Anon in 2021. It wasn't until he was about nine months in that he finally realized he had work to do on himself, and by the end of his first year in recovery he'd completed his step work and had become a new person. It used to be that he couldn't imagine life being any worse, but now, by the grace of God, he struggles to imagine it can get any better.

Carriss is a grateful recovered sexaholic from St. Louis and has been a member of SA since August 2021. Carriss joined the program to save her marriage but when she accepted her sexaholism as a disease and began working a rigorous program she saved herself. Carriss's life, marriage and attitude have changed for the better and for these reasons she is grateful to be a sexaholic.

Antonella - Steps 10, 11 and 12 - Living In The Solution - Meeting #27

RECO12

12/18/20 • 56 min

Guest Intro and Bio: My name is Antonella. My parents separated when I was two years old. I had a very dysfunctional childhood which led to a life of unmanageability and maladaptive thinking acting in self will. Using drugs, alcohol, food and relationships for ease and comfort to cope. In the midst of an unhappy marriage my 14-year-old was expelled from school for using drugs. It was suggested to us to send my child to a treatment center. It was there, when I read the 12 Steps on the wall, that I realized I needed this help myself. This started my recovery journey and the qualification to several 12 step programs.
Welcome to the Reco12 Speaker Meeting. We are an organization whose addictions include alcohol, drugs, lust and sex, food and gambling, just to name a few.

We invite recovering addicts with at least 1 year sobriety and who are actively working their recovery in their respective fellowships to share their experience, strength and hope on a live Zoom meeting, each Friday at 12:00 pm central time, for 20-25 minutes.

Cathy came to Overeaters Anonymous Sept 2013 because she could not stay stopped from hurting herself with food no matter what she tried! A miracle of healing happened 4 years ago when Cathy finally conceded to herself that she will never have enough “will power” to abstain from compulsively overeating. Only a relationship with a Higher Power does for Cathy what she cannot do for herself. In today's meeting, Cathy shares on the crux of the problem.

You will not want to miss this one if you are a married person working your recovery. John belongs to AA and Recovering Couples Anonymous (RCA). Early in Sobriety, he became a single parent to 3 kids due to his ex-wife's addictions. While AA became a way of life, John found great difficulty applying the principles in his marriage. Although he wasn't drinking he would withdraw under emotional pressure. John joined RCA in 2019 and started a recovery program in his marriage. Today he actively tries to merge his Higher Power in his recovery, marriage, and faith.
