110. What If The 12 Steps Aren’t For Me?

In The Circle

On this week’s episode of In The Circle, we’re looking back on a topic that sits deep in the minds of most people who are in recovery–What If The 12 Steps Aren’t For Me?

Jeanne, a member of our Recovery 2.0 community shares about how the 12 steps will always be the foundation of her recovery, but that after a while she felt called to explore alternative paths of healing.

What starts as a question about adopting modern-day healing modalities into 12-step recovery turns into a powerful look at what is broken about our approach to recovery in America and what we can do about it.

There are so many options when it comes to recovery, and it is certainly my prayer that people will explore all the avenues that lead to health and wellness. I

We want to thank Jeanne today for asking this question and bringing so much to the table that we can explore. We must take stock of why we do what we do, especially when it comes to our decisions about healthcare and the well-being of all people.

Tommy Discusses:

• Considering the 12-step doctrine
• Ways modern treatment approaches fall short
• Is the world ready for new modalities of healing?
• Poorly designed institutions and agencies
