Karen A - Using the Big Book in People and Relationship Addictions - Meeting 166
Karen A. from Jerusalem, Israel is a proud Mommy and member of the Spiritual Gangsters fellowship. Karen had addiction running through her family and lost her baby brother to an accidental morphine overdose when he was just three days out of rehab. In 2014, Karen entered the rooms of OA when her doctor said she had the 4Fs - female, fertile, fat, and forty! She knew that a spiritual approach was the only solution to her food problem and all of life's other challenges, such as codependency, anonism, and love addiction. Today, Karen guides sponsees through the Big Book for any affliction, especially people addictions - CoDA, Al-Anon, Sex and Love Addiction, etc. and she specializes in carrying the message of Alcoholics Anonymous to Orthodox Jewish women worldwide who otherwise would not have access to recovery. She speaks to us today on using the Big Book and Big Book principles in people and relationship addictions.
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.
