My first 12 step meeting was horrendous! But I've been gratefully recovered for years.

I'll never forget how horrific my first 12 step meeting was.

And how no one prepared me for what to expect, or that there were actual things you should not do or say during a meeting!

After this experience, which I share on this short video, I now have gone on and counseled hundreds of people on the very best way to attend any and all 12 step meetings.

Here we go!

I believe 12 step meetings can be a great part of recovery, but know there are many more things we all need to be doing regularly to be happy and recovered for life.

Twenty years ago we created a holistic recovery system that works for all addictions.
