What is failure really about?  How can I be ok with not being in control?  What can help with delegating?  In part 1 of 4 of Episode 5, Theresa focuses on chapters 1 and 9 from one of her favorite books "Discovering Choices" (B-30) and shares how, after coming in the Al-Anon program, reading the literature can start the recovery process.  We also talk about the benefits of belonging to a CAL study group, setting different types of boundaries, how we use our nose and knees in recovery, and detaching without using a hatchet!

QUOTABLE MOMENT FROM THERESA:

  • "...I can love the alcoholic without loving the alcoholism."
