Family Reconnect Waitlist: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc In Week 9 of our Big Book Study, we dive into the first half of We Agnostics — one of the most pivotal and misunderstood chapters in Alcoholics Anonymous. This section speaks directly to those who struggle with the idea of a Higher Power, offering both challenge and invitation. We break down how the Big Book addresses resistance, doubt, and past experiences with religion, and why belief doesn't have to come all at once — or look any certain way. If you've ever thought, “I want recovery, but I'm not sure about all this God stuff,” this is the episode for you.

Family Reconnect Waitlist: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc This one's for the person who's stuck—tired of using, tired of lying, tired of being miserable, but terrified of what sobriety actually looks like. I'm not here to sugarcoat it. Getting clean isn't easy. It takes grit, honesty, and a willingness to do things differently. But it's possible. In this episode, I'm talking directly to you—the addict who knows they need to change but doesn't know where to start. If you've been waiting for a sign, this is it. You're not broken. You're not hopeless. But you are going to have to fight for the life you want. Let's talk about what that fight looks like… and why it's worth it.  Treatment Prep Guide: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/treatmentprep SoberLink: https://www.soberlink.com/partners-family-and-friends/rrt Join our Big Book Study! https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/bigbookstudy Join our FREE FB Support group!: https://www.facebook.com/groups/realrecoverytalk Download our free guides!: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/guides Tom IG: https://www.instagram.com/realrecoverytalktom/ Ben IG: https://www.instagram.com/realrecoverytalkben/ RRT IG: https://www.instagram.com/realrecoverytalkpodcast/

Family Reconnect Waitlist: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc In this episode, we sit down with Kat, who opens up about what it finally took for her to get sober after years of fighting recovery. She shares how she never saw herself as someone who would walk into an AA meeting — and definitely didn't think it would work. But when nothing else worked, Kat made the decision to surrender. That decision changed everything. Kat talks in detail about how Alcoholics Anonymous helped her rebuild her life from the inside out. Today, she's not just sober — she's thriving, and she's passionate about giving back and helping others find the same freedom she did.

Family Reconnect Waitlist: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc In this episode, we continue our deep dive into the Big Book with Part Two of “More About Alcoholism.” This section pulls no punches — it lays out what makes us different from the “average drinker,” and why self-knowledge, willpower, and good intentions just aren't enough to stay sober. We break down the powerful stories in this chapter that show just how cunning, baffling, and powerful alcoholism really is — especially when we start thinking we have it all under control. We also talk about the emotional and mental obsession that keeps alcoholics trapped in the cycle, even when they know the consequences. Whether you're working the steps, revisiting the Big Book, or supporting someone in recovery, this episode is packed with truth, perspective, and reminders of why surrender is the beginning — not the end.

Family Reconnect Waitlist: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc In today's episode, we open by talking about the latest news surrounding Britney Spears — not to add to the media frenzy, but to reflect on the heartbreaking reality that unfolds when someone you love is in emotional or mental crisis. Her public struggles mirror what so many families quietly go through when a loved one is battling addiction or mental health issues behind closed doors. That sparks a deeper question we explore in this episode: How do family members measure progress in their own lives, even when their addicted loved one is still in chaos? We shift the focus away from trying to “fix” the addict, and instead talk directly to the family member who's exhausted, confused, and wondering if anything they're doing is actually helping. We offer real tools — boundary-setting, emotional detachment, accountability, and mindset shifts — to help you start regaining your peace, your power, and your sanity. Whether your loved one is still using, in treatment, or you're just trying to hold it together — this episode will give you a new lens and a plan you can start using today.

Family Reconnect Waitlist: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc In this episode, we dive into Part One of “More About Alcoholism” from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. This chapter hits hard — it forces us to confront the delusion that so many of us hold onto: that somehow, someday, we'll be able to control and enjoy our drinking. We break down the stories and examples laid out in this section, and we talk honestly about how dangerous that kind of thinking can be. If you've ever thought, “Maybe this time it'll be different…” — this one's for you. Whether you're in recovery, just starting your journey, or supporting someone who's struggling, this chapter brings powerful clarity.  Part two is coming soon — but for now, we dig into what makes this section so real, so relatable, and so necessary.

Family Reconnect Waitlist: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc In this episode, Tom and Steve react to Chrissy Teigen's recent announcement that she started drinking again after a period of sobriety. This sparks a bigger conversation: why do people relapse — even when life looks “good” on the outside? We break down some of the most common reasons people pick up again, including emotional triggers, social pressure, unresolved trauma, and lack of support. Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode is a real look at what can lead someone back to the bottle — and how to prevent it.

Family Reconnect Waitlist: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc In this episode, we dive into the idea of "sponsor families" — you've probably heard someone say, “My sponsor's sponsor was sponsored by so-and-so,” almost like a sobriety family tree. But is that even a real thing? Or is it something we made up to feel more important in the rooms? We talk about where the concept might have come from, why some people cling to the lineage of their sponsorship like a badge of honor, and whether this creates more division than unity. At the end of the day, we all date back to Bill Wilson — so is the whole sponsor-family vibe helpful or just ego in disguise? Tune in for a thought-provoking, honest conversation with a little humor mixed in.  Treatment Prep Guide: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/treatmentprep SoberLink: https://www.soberlink.com/partners-family-and-friends/rrt Join our Big Book Study! https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/bigbookstudy Join our FREE FB Support group!: https://www.facebook.com/groups/realrecoverytalk Download our free guides!: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/guides Tom IG: https://www.instagram.com/realrecoverytalktom/ Ben IG: https://www.instagram.com/realrecoverytalkben/ RRT IG: https://www.instagram.com/realrecoverytalkpodcast/

Family Reconnect Waitlist: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc In this episode, we continue breaking down one of the most impactful chapters in the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous — There Is a Solution. This time, we dive into the second half of the chapter, where the Big Book gets into what the real solution actually is. We talk about the idea of spiritual experience, the power of the fellowship, and the critical role that working with others plays in long-term recovery. This isn't about quick fixes — it's about a complete shift in how we live and connect with the world around us. Whether you're brand new to recovery or years in, the second half of this chapter offers depth, direction, and clarity that can re-center your entire program.

Family Reconnect Waitlist: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Labor — a medical doctor who also happens to be in long-term recovery from drug addiction. Her story is powerful: from the outside, she had it all together — a successful career in medicine — but behind the scenes, addiction was slowly taking over her life. Today, she not only shares her personal experience getting sober but also helps us understand why addiction is so misunderstood — especially by those who have never experienced it. Dr. Labor breaks down the brain chemistry behind addiction in a way that's easy to follow and incredibly eye-opening. We talk about how the reward system gets hijacked, what happens neurologically when someone tries to quit, and why the common advice to “just stop” doesn't work for alcoholics and addicts. She offers both personal insight and professional knowledge, helping bridge the gap between science and lived experience. This episode is for anyone trying to make sense of addiction — whether it's your own, a loved one's, or someone you're trying to help.

Family Reconnect Waitlist: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc In this episode, we sit down with Brian, who shares his powerful journey through nearly four years of sobriety. Brian opens up about the brutal depths his addiction took him, and what it finally took for him to get clean. But his story takes a turn — even after spending a full year in treatment, he relapsed almost immediately upon leaving. Why? That's what we dig into. Brian reflects on his lack of willingness during that time and the truth he wasn't ready to face. Joining us is Nicole, who was Brian's therapist during his original treatment stay back in 2017. She offers insight into what might have been missing, the patterns she saw, and why sometimes relapse is part of the journey — not the end of it. This is a real, honest look at what recovery really takes, and why simply being in treatment isn't enough if you're not willing to do the inner work.
