Top 4 Lessons in Sponsoring Women in Recovery

Published: Sept. 27, 2023, midnight

b'For those of us who get sober in the rooms of recovery, dare I say, AA, NA, MA or the likes, we understand the ultimate goal is to give back what has been given freely to us. It s the icing on the cake per se. Not everyone sponsors that is the term or the title given to someone who takes another person under their wing and helps them find a new way of living so they don t relapse. It s this service that glues the recovery programs together. But, many refrain from it because they are scared they will do it wrong, or they suffer from the perfectionists attitude. In today s show, I am going to give 4 tops lessons I learned in sponsoring somewhere between 100- 200 women over a span of 20 years. Now, I do not hold a degree in psychology (yet). This is street smart, common sense, taught lessons from my owns sponsors of the years, and a whole lotta practice that brings these to the forefront. I picked Four, but really there are dozens of lessons I learned . From parenting to marriage to friendship, to awareness of co-dependency habits within myself and others.'
