12 Steps on The PATH TO Freedom
The Efficient Way to Successfully Walk the Walk
to Freedom & It’s Release from Suffering through the 12 steps.
Introduction
My name is Lisa F and I am offering a 12 Step Big Book Study Workshop, beginning July 15, 2025, EST 8:0030-10:00 pm (East Coast US).
My studies and lessons with the 12 steps began over 50 years ago as an “alateen” participant. Life with an active alcoholic made growing up nearly impossible and alateen became the beginning of my journey with the 12 steps. After marriage at a very young age, the unmanageability of my life became more consuming and I was barely functional and consumed by raging fear. I added Alanon and ACA to my weekly meetings, alternating with private therapy off and on while managing merely to survive life and raise 3 small children. Later in my life, I would also attend groups for NA, OA, ACOA, CODA, and at the age of 45 managed to receive a college degree in Psychology/Communications, etc. to understand, repair and cope with my fearful, dispirited life that was reduced to a 15 mile radius from my home.
When I eventually and miraculously found Herb K’s workshop, I realized I had not really been ostensibly “living” the higher and spiritual 12 steps but merely attending "talk" meetings. The profoundly literal deep dive meaning of the 12 steps was what was missing for my undeniable desire to find true recovery. Shortly after joining Herb’s workshops, I was shaken to my core when my loved one was brought to death and revived twice, due to drunk driving. In the weeks and months that followed, through my participation in his newly found recovery workshop, I was finally willing to let go the predominant death grip of control and break the chains of my self induced suffering, one link at a time. On the night that I experienced my first spiritual experience, I finally understood what is meant by “Let Go and Let God”, I stepped aside, too beaten to control even the smallest of of my broken life's demands.
Having been graced with numerous spiritual enlightenments since that fateful night, and in the true spirit of the 12th step, I was called to return the gracious gifts of the 12 step recovery process outlined by Herb K. bestowed upon me. My focus is to help 12 step students, in any recovery program, reach their 12 step recovery goals, while maximizing their potential for a spiritual experience, in order to be able to step more fully into their spiritual awakenings and experience the freedom the 12 steps promise. It is the student who will primarily guide this growth process. In that regard, one must ask, "how free do I want to be"? Through the deep dive into the 12 steps (AA's Big Book, by Bill W) the chains of dysfunctional living will be removed. The key is to understand this workshop as a guided journey that takes place over time through a relational alliance between the study of the 12 steps, the student (you), and your higher power (whether you have one presently, or not). As Herb K would say, "Buckle up, you're in for the ride of your life"!
