64: Why Anniversaries Matter in Recovery

3d ago 16:48

MP3•Episode home

Why does a 21-year sobriety chip matter—but the next 24 hours matter most?

In this episode, we talk about milestones, humility, and the daily actions that keep recovery alive. Stephen explains how anniversaries serve as a reset—an honest inventory against complacency—because no matter how many years you have, the most important day is still today.

We unpack the meaning of recovery chips and how small tokens carry big hope. You’ll also hear simple ways loved ones can show support, like attending a meeting or writing a note.

If you’re feeling alone, we get practical: find a home group, take a commitment, and lean into endless online AA and NA meetings to rebuild community quickly.

At the core is a framework that works—faith in a higher power, a sponsor who knows the steps, a meeting a day, living the 12 steps in real time, and service that pulls us out of our heads.

If you’re struggling or searching for your path, we want to hear from you. Listen, share with someone who needs it, then subscribe and leave a review to help others find recovery.
