Show Notes:

Welcome to The Recovered Podcast. In today's episode, we're diving deep into the foundational principle of recovery: Step 1 of Alcoholics Anonymous. Join us as we explore the profound meaning of admitting powerlessness and how this crucial first step paves the way for lasting sobriety and a new way of life.

Step 1 isn't just about admitting a problem; it's about a profound surrender that unlocks the door to a new beginning. Join us as we explore the liberating power of acknowledging powerlessness and the transformative journey that begins when we truly accept the unmanageability of our lives.
