Surrender

When we hear the word "surrender" it's easy to think of weakness. But it takes a lot of courage and strength to cease fighting and give in to getting the help we need. After we've taken our licks from the disease and truly been beaten into submission, the only thing left is surrender. It's then that the true healing can begin.
On this episode of The Other Side of Hell, Willy and Cameron talk about surrender. Each of us have found ourselves in situations where we thought we knew it all and how best to help ourselves. After repeated attempts at "helping" ourselves, we had to accept that a power greater than ourselves was the solution. Luckily, we often have people all around us or know of resources where we can find a power greater than ourselves. By asking these people/organizations for help, we become humble and open enough to let change happen. This often times is a true miracle.
This weeks warstory is from our friend Alyssa, a true warrior and elementary school principal from Ohio who shares with us what it was like escaping from the mundane into a bottle. After accomplishing a great deal in life and having everything she thought she could want, she still felt empty inside. Hear how she finally was able to surrender, and become vulnerable and open enough to allow for the solution to begin working in her life. We love hearing how she shares her victories with her family and how openly they talk about sobriety. Thank you Alyssa for your inspiration!
