Aa Beyond Belief

This episode features a talk by Benn B. from Omaha, Nebraska who visited Kansas City last summer to speak at the KC Secular AA Speaker Meeting. Benn covers a lot of ground in this short talk. He describes his years growing up before he started drinking, how is drinking became a problem, and his experience with AA as he got sober. The overall take-away is the important role a supportive community can play in one's recovery.   Benn's personal experience in recovery coupled with his training as a substance abuse counselor provide him with an interesting perspective on the program, as he put it the "hows and whys" of addiction and recovery.
