Customer Reviews
Great Podcast
I just listen too a podcast of a person who got sober a month before I did in 2002. I really felt she was telling my story of getting sober in Long Beach CA. Like her I moved because I got married and now live in Van Nuys Ca and now I’m having problems fitting in. I am now listening to all of the speakers.
Great podcast
Very good 12th step tool and reflective tool for individuals who have long term sobriety. I have a list of really really good ones and share them often. Lots of diversity…however noticed lots of west coast and some east coast…southeast would have some interesting perspectives on recovery as well.
Love this format!
Thank you so much for the great speakers and the interviews at the end. You often ask the questions I was thinking! This podcast helps me stay sober. I love it and appreciate it so much!
