What AA Skeptics Can Learn From the 12 Steps with Arlina Allen

What AA Skeptics Can Learn From the 12 Steps with Arlina Allen

Arlina Allen is a Certified Sobriety Coach & Hypnotist, The Founder of Sober Life School, and Host of the award-winning podcast “The One Day at a Time Recovery Podcast.” She specializes in helping smart, busy, professional women to quit drinking and create a life they love. This fall she is releasing her book, The 12 Step Guide for Skeptics.

Arlina has been sober for 30 years, happily married for 27 plus years and is the mother of two amazing young adult men and mama to Teddy, the family English Bulldog. And, fun fact, lives in the same area as me in Idaho!

As an AA skeptic myself, I really appreciated this conversation with Arlina. She shares how Alcoholics Anonymous and the 12 Steps were helpful for her and walks us through some of the more “problematic” steps with a fresh perspective.

We talk about:

  • How Arlina quit drinking
  • How the approach to sobriety and drinking has changed since she quit drinking 30 years ago
  • The controversy around the word “alcoholic”
  • How you can take what you need from the 12 Steps
  • Arlina walks us through the 12 Steps and gives an alternative way of thinking about them
  • And more!
