How the Twelve Steps Offer a Surprising Path of Transformation :: Ian Cron [Ep 506]

Don't Mom Alone Podcast

Did you know that 12-step programs are for anyone? Do you feel like your life has spiritual direction or are you just floating through surviving?
Today I am excited to have Ian Cron who is an author, speaker, trained psychotherapist, songwriter, and Episcopal priest here. Ian shares his own journey into addiction and sobriety and how that process prompted him to write his newest book The Fix to help people see our deep need for Jesus in our journey through life. Here are just a few of the topics we cover…

• Understanding the 12 steps of recovery from addiction
• Addiction comes in many forms—alcohol, phone, success, approval,etc
• We are all looking for a fix to make life more tolerable
• Enneagram types and their common addictions
• Transformation vs. Reformation
• Letting go of resentment and forgiving the people in your life
