Host Spencer and guest Ashley delve into the transformative power of the 12 steps in the Al-Anon program. We revisit the 12 steps and explore their impact on our personal growth and healing. We read and reflect on passages from chapter 8, “Twelve Steps”, in the book How Al-Anon Works, sharing our own experiences and insights. Our discussion emphasizes the importance of attitude change, the deep self-awareness that comes from working the steps, and the continuous journey of recovery. Through personal anecdotes and practical advice, Spencer and Ashley illustrate how the 12 steps guide individuals toward serenity, self-forgiveness, and a more fulfilling life.















Readings and Links







We read from How Al-Anon Works for Family and Friends of Alcoholics, Chapter 8.
