Paul S - Anger vs. Grief in COVID - Meeting 104

Paul Schulte is a certified drug and alcohol counselor who has also been sober almost 19 years.  He received his degree in Drug and Alcohol Addiction Treatment from Loyola Marymount University. He completed his clinical hours at the UCLA School of Medicine where he worked on LGBT addiction studies.   He is the author of two books on addiction.  The First is “Paths to Recovery for Gay and Bisexual Addicts: Healing Weary Hearts”.   The second is “We Agnostics: How William James, Father of American Psychology, Inspired the Twelve Step Movement.” 

Reco12 is an organization with the mission of learning and sharing the similarities of addiction of all kinds and gaining and sharing tools and hope from others who are walking a similar path.  We come together from all places, faiths and backgrounds to gain tools and hope from others who are walking a similar path.  Speakers from our past meetings have represented many fellowships and identify with addictions with such variety of alcoholism, drugs, food, sex, gambling, theft, co-dependency, and the anon groups, just to name a few.  

We invite recovering addicts with at least 1 year sobriety and who are actively working their recovery in their respective fellowships to share their experience, strength and hope on a live Zoom webinar, each Friday at 12:00 pm central time, for 20-25 minutes.  Then, we, the live audience, get the opportunity to ask questions of the speaker for another 20-25 minutes. 

Reco12 is a self-supporting service and we appreciate your help in keeping it that way.  We gratefully accept contributions to help cover the costs of the Zoom platform, podcast platform, web hosting, and administrative costs.  To contribute, you can go to https://www.reco12.com/support  or you can click the link to PayPal (https://www.paypal.me/reco12)  in the chat of the live meeting.  When you contribute, please specify the meeting number.  This is meeting number 104.
