She walks us through the moments leading up to her acceptance of this truth, her struggle with the denial of alcohol being the root cause, and her ultimate surrender to a power greater than herself. You’ll hear Eileen’s vivid recounting of her early drinking days and how they shaped her life, how isolation became her norm, and how breaking free from these chains was anything but easy. Her words paint a picture of what hopelessness turned to hope looks like, thanks to the transformative power of Alcoholics Anonymous and the incredible support of its fellowship. Throughout her narrative, Eileen drops nuggets of wisdom about the importance of honesty and vulnerability, the power of community, and how a structured path through the 12 steps has brought about profound personal change. She also shares touching anecdotes about family connections and the spiritual journey to finding peace and love, both within herself and in her relationships. This episode is not just for those struggling with addiction, but for anyone who has ever felt lost and is seeking a path to real, lasting change.

That’s the magic we share here—delivering hope and healing, story by story, straight from those seemingly barren church basements and bustling clubhouses where incredible transformations happen. Today’s episode is a gem—let’s dive into the unexpectedly profound chapter "Two Employers" from our beloved Big Book. Don’t be deceived by its inconspicuous title. This chapter is a powerful revelation! Even if you're not the CEO of a major company, bear with me—you'll find yourself relating to the core spiritual message woven through personal tales and insightful guidance. We'll unravel the misconception that labeled us alcoholics as failures or difficulties in the workplace, and instead, embrace the truth: we are individuals seeking help and a spiritual solution. Whether you’re an employer in the corporate world or navigating through life’s personal challenges, these teachings encourage empathy and understanding towards those struggling with alcoholism. So grab your shot glass of recovery—yes, it's truly one for the road. Together, we'll explore how this chapter nudges us to rethink judgments and attitudes, inviting all of us to rise beyond the mundane. Whether your task seems trivial or monumental, there lies the opportunity to apply these principles, to grow, and to ultimately find a spiritual awakening. Oh, and if you find this episode speaks to you, show us some love—subscribe, share, and maybe drop a line. It helps keep this wave of recovery flowing, reaching hearts like yours. You're the reason we're here, pouring our hearts out, one shot glass at a time. Stay blessed, my friend!

About A Shot Glass of Recovery

An odd name for a podcast on Recovery? When I was wondering what to call this podcast I reflected back on my drinking history and how I used alcohol and drugs as a Solution to my thinking, my problems, my very existence in general...I always reached for that shot glass of solution. But when the glasses were empty and the bottles ran dry the solution I’d used for decades had only made things worse. I’ve been on this recovery road for a little over 19 years now and what I’ve learned is my recovery is contingent on carrying the message to others. I hope you sit back and enjoy listening to the speaker series I’ve curated from my home group AA Solution Seekers. Perhaps when you feel most alone, in need of company or a positive message, you will join me as I share some of the wisdom the folks in recovery have shared with me over the years. This podcast is just recycled feedback from the rooms of recovery. Thank you for listening and helping me stay sober one day at a time.
