Today I’m telling the story of the most disturbing thing my AA sponsor ever said to me. It was about a known predator in our Alcoholics Anonymous meetings… and how she spiritualized it.

This is part of the deprogramming AA series and a crucial conversation about the 13th step—a term so common it has its own name, and that alone should raise alarms.

If you've ever felt unsafe, doubted your gut, or experienced sexual predation inside Alcoholics Anonymous—this one's for you.

You're not alone. It's safe to trust yourself.

Healing is possible. Freedom is available. And silence is not the solution.

Free resources + online courses mentioned:

📺 My TED talk on s*xual abuse + addiction
