David Belden was born into a family of Oxford Group leaders and committed activists. The Group set out “to change the world” and throughout his early years David devoted himself wholeheartedly to this challenge. But while “carrying the message” in Africa, his life took an unexpected turn that led to his questioning some of principles and practices he had once taken uncritically for granted.David returned to Oxford University to write his doctoral dissertation on the Group's history, influence and shortcomings. He recently published a still more intimate account of his own journey toward personal and social transformation and change: The World Remakers' Child.This series affords a rare insider's view of the Group responsible for contributing no fewer than ten of A.A.'s Twelve Steps and yields fresh insights and challenges throughout. Mahatma Gandhi's grandson praised David's book for its “steady candor,” “humor about himself,” and “a thirst for a less harsh, more loving, and fairer world.”This third episode traces the origins of many of the 12 Steps as they were practiced among members of the Group. Remember, Bill Wison said he derived no fewer than ten of his twelve Steps straight from his experience within the Oxford Group. They had no Steps, but they were well on their way to finding the Answer!Show notes:David Belden's book: The World Remakers' ChildDave's Oxford University Doctoral Thesis:https://www.academia.edu/27545723/The_Origins_and_Development_of_the_Oxford_Group_Moral_Re_Armament_

Send us a textIn this week's episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I'm sharing a powerful realization from my own recovery journey: the pattern of emotionally unavailable partners wasn't just about who I was choosing, it was about my own emotional availability.For years, I believed I was unlucky in love. Through ACA recovery and a deep relationship inventory, I discovered how my nervous system, conditioning, and avoidance of emotions were shaping my relationships far more than I realized.Some of the talking points I go over in this episode include:Why attracting emotionally unavailable partners is often a sign of emotional unavailability within yourself.How ACA Step Four and the concept of causes and conditions revealed my relationship patterns.The role of emotional avoidance, numbing, and codependence in romantic dynamics.How emotions like resentment are signals, not verdicts, and what they're really telling you.Why boundaries are about clarity and self-responsibility, not control.If you want healthier, more secure relationships, the work doesn't start with finding better partners. It starts with becoming emotionally available to yourself. Learning to feel, listen, speak honestly, and set boundaries is where real change happens.Relationship inventory categories:PersonWhat I expectedWhat I gotMy dependent behaviorHow relationship endedAdditional categories I tracked:Who was I in love with?Who was I in relationship wth where we both knew “we're boyfriend and girlfriend?”Which relationships included massive substance use?Which relationships included infidelity with either of us?Which ones were friends with benefits?Who did I break up with and who broke up with me?Be sure to tune in to all the episodes for practical tools, recovery insights, and real-life examples of what it means to live a more whole life.Thank you for listening!

NO RESOLUTIONS NEEDED. In this episode of the Take 12 Recovery Radio Show, hosts Monty and Roger discuss the concept of resolutions versus goals, particularly in the context of recovery. They emphasize the importance of living in the principles of the 12 steps, particularly Steps 10, 11, and 12, as a way to avoid the pitfalls of traditional New Year's resolutions. The conversation delves into understanding God's will, the significance of personal accountability, and the need for discipline in spiritual practices. The hosts conclude that true change comes from a lifestyle of recovery rather than temporary resolutions.

Rehab is a $42 billion industry hooked on bad science. Nick Pell helps us detox from its myths by prescribing the truth on Skeptical Sunday!Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we're joined by writer and researcher Nick Pell!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1249On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:The Minnesota Model dominates addiction treatment despite lacking evidence. This abstinence-based approach from the 1950s, requiring lifelong total abstinence from all substances, became the default not because it works best but because 12-step programs are free and easily scalable.Most people naturally age out of addiction without treatment. Research shows the majority who struggle with substances simply stop on their own over time, contradicting the "chronic disease" narrative that claims addiction requires lifelong management and intervention.The addiction treatment industry has massive financial conflicts of interest. As rehab is a $42 billion industry, practices like the "Florida Shuffle" and patient brokering weaponize relapse for profit, billing insurance repeatedly for the same patients cycling through facilities.The disease model of addiction lacks empirical support. There's no scientifically recognized "addictive personality," and the idea that addiction is an incurable, progressive disease isn't backed by research, yet it remains the dominant framework shaping treatment and policy.Evidence-based alternatives like harm reduction and moderation exist. Options including SMART Recovery, medication-assisted treatment, and gradual reduction approaches can be effective. You don't need to hit rock bottom before seeking help, and recovery can mean different things for different people.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.
