Gwen W - The 12 Steps Change Us from the Inside Out - Meeting 278

Gwen spent almost 20 years going in and out of 12-step rooms, struggling to do her part to recover from her food addiction. After years of failing and relapse, she became suicidal. This scared her enough to make one final effort to find recovery . . . and she found it! The more Gwen focused her recovery efforts on a few basic practices outlined in the 12 steps, the better her understanding became of the recovery process. Finally, Gwen made her way to the other side of her food addiction. Today, Gwen is very passionate about teaching the simple addiction recovery framework found in the 12 steps that can lead to peaceful and permanent recovery.

Reco12 is all about exploring the common threads of addiction and sharing tools and hope from those on a similar path. We gather from diverse backgrounds, faiths, and places to learn and support one another. Our speakers represent various fellowships, addictions, and afflictions, thus showing the common threads of recovery, no matter our addiction or affliction.
