  • Sharon started her recovery journey on October 21, 1985 when she was released from the bondage of alcohol. Since then, she has uncovered and discovered other addictions and afflictions that she has experienced relief from. She is a grateful member of several 12-step programs including AA, FA, SLAA, Alanon/S-Anon, and ACoA. Sharon is grateful to be the third generation of recovery in her family. She speaks today on the importance of addressing multiple addictions in the order they are killing us.

  • In today's Afro-Euro Reco12, Chris D speaks on a A Sane and Sound Ideal.
    Here is a little about Chris:

    Chris D comes from London, UK. He found the rooms of recovery via AlAnon, but found the program of recovery in Alcoholics Anonymous & Cocaine Anonymous and he has been clean & sober since 23/12/2005. He is grateful to have discovered that the promise on page 152 of the Big Book, "The most satisfactory years of your existence lie ahead!", is always true!

  • Gwen spent almost 20 years going in and out of 12-step rooms, struggling to do her part to recover from her food addiction. After years of failing and relapse, she became suicidal. This scared her enough to make one final effort to find recovery . . . and she found it! The more Gwen focused her recovery efforts on a few basic practices outlined in the 12 steps, the better her understanding became of the recovery process. Finally, Gwen made her way to the other side of her food addiction. Today, Gwen is very passionate about teaching the simple addiction recovery framework found in the 12 steps that can lead to peaceful and permanent recovery.

Robert has been a speaker on the Reco12 Speaker Meeting Podcast several times on meetings 44, 91, and 145. In this conversation, Robert and Justin B bring in Michelle K, who has what I want, to discuss several more questions that were submitted from various addicts from various backgrounds and locations. We dive deep into working with and loving others as well as working for and loving Higher Power. Our primary purpose is fitting ourselves to be of maximum service to God and our fellows.


    You can find Robert at any of the following places:

  • Erica Davenport is our speaker today. Here is a bit about her in her own words: "I was homeless and experienced domestic violence. Was almost killed and almost raped. One day I believe I met an angel through all of my scary moments who pulled me aside and told me she had been looking for me to give me a message. What she told me was amazing. And although I never saw her again even after searching for her several times, everything she told me came true 5 years later.

    I am now a non-profit organization called TITO (Turning Insecurities To Opportunities). I am a motivational speaker and author and am dedicated to help others overcome their struggles with addiction."

  • Today we will hear Sam in the Afro-Euro Reco12 Meeting. He will be speaking on the topic of Going at Gd's Pace on the Pathway of Recovery. Here is a little about Sam in his own words:

    I am Sam, a debtor and underearner. I have been working the the program with increasing intensity for the past three yesrs. I used to rotutinely max out credit cards, bounce checks, and constantly seek quick fixes. Now I am learning to trust G-d one day at a time and by His grace I am solvent/sober. Trusting He will take care of my family and if I do His work well. Trusting in His plan not mine.

  • This week, Reco12 branched out a little and did an "Ask-it Basket" with the Recovery Guy, Robert Pardon. Robert has been a speaker on the Reco12 Speaker Meeting Podcast several times on meetings 44, 91, and 145. In this conversation, Robert and Justin B discuss about 10 questions that were submitted from various addicts from various backgrounds and locations. We dive deep into working with and loving others as well as working for and loving Higher Power. Our primary purpose is fitting ourselves to be of maximum service to God and our fellows.

    Specific questions posed and answered include:

    How do I learn to take it one day at a time when everything seems urgent? How do we go into places that could be slippery in early Recovery? It seems I must surrender, but that is the hardest thing ever done. I’m afraid of surrendering. Have you lost a loved one in recovery? A time when you felt that God had abandoned you in recovery and how did you regain that connection?


    You can find Robert at any of the following places:
    Recoveryguy.org
    YouTube Channel
    Podcast - Recovery Guy - From Broken to Whole

    If you would like to submit any questions for a future Ask-it Basket episode, or if you would like to get in contact with Robert or Justin, please send an email to [email protected]

  • Nira M speaks to us on how to sit with Grief in this Afro-Euro meeting of Reco12.

    Here is a little about Nira in her own words: I am recovered codependent and sex and love addict from Sweden, a member of CoDA, SLAA and SAA. I found my way into the rooms during the summer of 2022.
    My homegroup is The Nordic Primary Purpose Group of Sex Addicts Anonymous, or ”the Nordic Group” for short. You can find out more information about us and our meeting at https://www.saappnordic.org
    I need not fight for anything anymore since finding this way of life, and for that I am grateful.

    Reco12 Big Book Roundtable Podcast

  • Only by the grace of God, Krissy F is still alive. She has been sober since December 6, 2006, but stayed sick sober for a long time, suffering from untreated alcoholism without realizing it. Krissy did the program 'her way,' avoiding certain steps and excluding God. For 14.5 years, she hung on by 'not drinking and going to meetings.' When she finally hit rock bottom emotionally, mentally, and spiritually, she surrendered to the 12 Step Program and embraced her need for God. This surrender allowed her to live with power, love, and a transformative way of life, enabling Krissy to be happy, joyous, and free. Today she speaks powerfully on how her painful past is the key to helping others.
