The Meeting After The Meeting isn't your typical recovery podcast—it's like pulling up a chair at the kitchen table with three friends and a guest who isn't afraid to get real. Each week, we laugh, cry, and dive deep into the stories that shape life in Alcoholics Anonymous.From the darkest lows of addiction to the brightest breakthroughs of recovery, we explore how pain transforms into strength, and how spiritual awakenings sneak up in the most unexpected ways. It's raw, it's relatable, and sometimes it's hilariously unfiltered—but it's always rooted in hope.Think of it as equal parts coffee, comedy, and confession—served up with a side of spirituality. Whether you're new to sobriety, long-time recovered, or just curious, this is the space where recovery feels alive, human, and full of possibility.
This week's blogpost - https://bahnsen.co/4bFGcwT Trevor Cummings hosts The Thoughts on Money Podcast with Brett Bonecutter and Blaine Carver to discuss “convictions over conformity,” arguing that shallow convictions lead investors to chase hot trends and abandon strategies when results turn. They contrast conformity/coercion with conviction by comparing Prohibition (a short-lived, legally forced attempt to curb alcoholism) with Alcoholics Anonymous (a long-lasting program rooted in personal responsibility and shared beliefs). The group emphasizes understanding the “why” behind an investment philosophy to avoid short-term decision-making, noting clients who engage intellectually are calmer during market stress. They discuss how strong convictions help filter product pitches and evaluate risk versus tax benefits. Trevor also shares uncertainty around legacy/estate planning, stressing communication, avoiding formulaic planning, and recognizing multi-generational impacts of wealth transfer. 00:00 Welcome and Setup 00:50 Why Conviction Matters 01:40 Conviction vs Conformity 03:54 Clients and Market Volatility 07:55 Prohibition as a Case Study 13:00 AA and Personal Responsibility 16:36 Start With Why 17:35 Staying True to Philosophy 20:24 Convictions Rooted in Truth 20:57 Grandma's Ham Parable 21:16 Ham Ends Parable 22:18 Why Beats What 23:34 AI Advice Pitfalls 24:28 Legacy Planning Uncertainty 27:05 Communication And Expectations 31:37 Advisor Role Boundaries 37:12 Gifting While Alive 38:44 Generational Ripple Effects 42:08 Fully Convinced Wrap Up 43:07 Ratings And Next Steps Links mentioned in this episode: http://thoughtsonmoney.com http://thebahnsengroup.com

Mary Ann 2026-02-28 lead at MAWPM's "Saturday Night Live" meetingLearn more about Marijuana AnonymousMA Meetings by PhoneSearch for a MA MeetingMarijuana Anonymous PreambleMarijuana Anonymous is a fellowship of people who share our experience, strength, and hope with each other that we may solve our common problem and help others to recover from marijuana addiction.The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop using marijuana. There are no dues or fees for membership. We are self-supporting through our own contributions. MA is not affiliated with any religious or secular institution or organization and has no opinion on any outside controversies or causes. Our primary purpose is to stay free of marijuana and to help the marijuana addict who still suffers achieve the same freedom. We can do this by practicing our suggested Twelve Steps of recovery and by being guided as a group by our Twelve Traditions.Marijuana Anonymous uses the basic 12 Steps of Recovery founded by Alcoholics Anonymous, because it has been proven that the 12 Step Recovery program works!Who is a Marijuana Addict?We who are marijuana addicts know the answer to this question. Marijuana controls our lives! We lose interest in all else; our dreams go up in smoke. Ours is a progressive illness often leading us to addictions to other drugs, including alcohol. Our lives, our thinking, and our desires center around marijuana—scoring it, dealing it, and finding ways to stay high."Why Marijuana Anonymous?• Stop Smoking Weed • Quit Smoking Pot • Cannabis/THC Addiction For a copy of our basic text and 12 Step Workbook: Life with Hope

Episode Summary: Finding a Second Story with Jim O'ConnorIn this powerful episode, Mike and Glenn sit down with Jim O'Connor, the founder of Second Story Ranch in Crete, Illinois. Jim shares his incredible journey from the depths of despair—living in "fleabag hotels" and battling suicidal ideation—to finding a life of service and purpose.The conversation focuses on the reality that while the desire for sobriety is important, it isn't always enough on its own. The true "differentiator" is complete surrender and the courage to ask for help.Key Takeaways from the Episode:The Power of a Second Chance: Second Story Ranch is a unique non-profit sober home and farm designed for those who have "burned their lives to the ground" and have the willingness to change but no remaining resources.The Pillars of Recovery: Jim emphasizes that stable housing, gainful employment, and 12-step immersion are the essential keys to rebuilding a life and reducing the risk of relapse.Breaking the "Groundhog Day" Cycle: Alcoholism often feels like a repetitive cycle of abuse. Jim discusses how emptying the soul makes room for healing, moving a person from being "unemployable" to "gainfully responsible."Community is Essential: Recovery isn't a solo mission. Jim highlights how the community of Alcoholics Anonymous provided the suggestions and direction he needed to transform his life.Final Thought:No matter how dark things seem, there is always hope and someone available to support your journey. As Jim proves, a commitment to the "deal"—effort, time, and the 12 steps—can lead to a total transformation.Learn More:To find more information about Jim's mission or to support the foundation, visit 2ndstoryfoundation.org.

"You've never seen me sober." For years, Justin built a respected name in the welding industry — sharp, disciplined, professional. But behind the scenes, there was something no one saw. In this raw and honest conversation, we talk about high-functioning alcohol use in the trades, what it looks like when success masks a problem, and the moment Justin realized he hadn't been truly clear-headed in nearly a decade. We cover: What high-functioning drinking really looks like The culture of alcohol in welding and blue-collar industries Productivity after quitting drinking Identity, reputation, and vulnerability Financial literacy and long-term career planning in the trades Why not hitting "rock bottom" can be the most dangerous place to live If you work in welding, fabrication, construction, or any skilled trade, this conversation may hit closer than you expect. This isn't about judgment. It's about ownership. If you or someone you know is struggling with alcohol, help is available: Alcoholics Anonymous – aa.org SAMHSA National Helpline – 1-800-662-4357 (24/7 confidential support) This is Blue Collar Talk — the real version.
