Step 9 w/ Terra Carbert from the Ambitious Addicts Podcast
Terra and I are talking about Step 9: AMENDS - Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
This is a huge milestone in recovery and please don't rush it. Process all the emotions that come with this step and don't forget to put yourself on that amends list.

Customer Reviews
Love it!
Super helpful in my recovery. I think my story would be very interesting on a podcast 😬😉
Breath of fresh air to my recovery❣️
These podcasts are so helpful to my recovery- I very much appreciate the podcast’s tipis and discussion s - definitely feel connected when I’m listening ❣️
Broke boy here
Heard Christina on an episode of the All In podcast and immediately felt such a strong connection. Early in my recovery and love listening to her story in the mornings to help keep me on the right track. Didn’t realize the podcast world had such a strong GA/addiction community! Love the title too, we become so much more broken than just financially with this addiction. Keep shining, we’re listening!
