Bill C. from Torrance, CA speaking about steps 6 and 7 at the Stateline Retreat in Primm, NV - December 9th - 12th 2010

Visit our website - Sober-Sunrise.com

Bill reflects on growing up in an AA household, falling deep into addiction, and ultimately discovering humility, grace, and emotional maturity through the 12 Steps. Raised by devoted AA and Al-Anon parents, he rebelled into years of chaos, institutions, and isolation before his mother’s compassion brought him to recovery. His talk wove sharp humor with deep wisdom, exploring Steps Six and Seven as a lifelong process of growing up — learning self-awareness over self-obsession, intimacy over isolation, and service over ego. Through sponsorship, pain, and surrender, he discovered that true recovery isn’t just about abstinence but emotional connection, faith, and love in action. Now decades sober, Bill lives the full circle of healing—caring for his dying parents, sponsoring others, and maintaining a home filled with recovery and laughter—showing that giving love away isn’t how we keep it, but how we finally receive it.
