Are You Thinking About Going to AA but Feeling Nervous? Here’s Everything You Need to Know

  If you’ve never attended a 12-step meeting, you likely have fears and anxieties running through your and keeping you from going. Or, maybe you went to a meeting or two and wrote it off as ‘not for you’, but as you’ve continued to struggle with staying sober you’re starting to wonder if it might be the solution. Either way, I want you to have the real real about what it’s like, what we are doing, and why we do it the way we do. Feeling nervous about going to a meeting is totally normal! Every one of us in that room felt nervous walking through the door the first time so we know exactly how you feel and we want to welcome you with love and support. Being connected to successfully sober people is what will allow you to kick start, and build, your sobriety. In fact, the more open-minded and connected you are, the stronger you will be and the faster you will grow. Why not stay closely dialed in to the people who have what you want? That’s the best way to achieve what they have…with your own flavor and style, of course. Let’s start with debunking a few things: No, you don’t have to talk if you don’t want to. For 18+ years I have said, “Hey everybody, I’m Angela, alcoholic, and I’m just going to listen today.” Yes, you can leave early if you want to. There’s no AA police that will chase you down and, for the most part, no one cares. No, you don’t have to believe in God or go to church just because AA uses the word God. 🤷‍♀️ AA has been around for decades with a sole purpose to help people. And all of us in those rooms want to help you, too. In this episode I’m pulling back the curtain and giving you the lowdown on how things are done and why we do it the way we do. We’ll talk about some of the myths, why suggestions are suggested, and how much power you have in your journey. Your experience is your decision and I hope to see in the rooms one day.   Links mentioned in this episode:  Is Angela the right Coach for you?
