Julie and Lisa discuss the importance of staying in your own lane in sobriety. What does that mean? Don't take other peoples' inventory, dont gossip, don't tell strangers how they should behave, don't tell other people how they should behave according to you! If you follow some simple rules like that you will have WAY LESS CONFLICT in your life. Most of our troubles were of our own making - that's what we learn in the big book of Alcoholics Anonymous.

Dr Harry M. Tiebouts collection of 4 papers were published in the 1953 quarterly journal of studies on alchohol. They would later be re-printed by the Hazeldon Foundation in 1990. Dr Tiebout was one of the first psychiatrists to describe alcoholism as a disease rather than a moral failing.
The papers are a great starting point to any discussion on willingness, surrender, psychic change. That is what we bring you today as Lisa discusses the paper with two friends in recovery, Judy and Sarah...

 Facts About Anonymity
It is the A.A. member’s responsibility, and not that of the media, to maintain our cherished Tradition of anonymity.
A.A. members may disclose their identity and speak as recovered alcoholics, giving radio, TV and online interviews, without violating the Traditions — so long as their A.A. membership is not revealed.
A.A. members may speak publicly as A.A. members only if their full names or faces are not revealed. They speak as individual members, but not for A.A. as a whole.
