    AIFA Writing In Recovery #4 Rage on the Page
    Today we discuss getting it out and letting it go. Be angry. Be petty. Do it on the page. Feel those feeling then be done with it. Writing is the liminal space between thought and action, between emotion and reaction. It is where I can explore ideas, express feelings, and ask questions, all without fear or judgment. Also join my workshop Sunday June 23rd at 4pm register now: https://www.opheliasbooks.com/courses-1/writing-in-recovery%3A-finding-creativity-in-sobriety?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR0kxNKaesTRVkcrnJS7raSVfptKtBm4P1pVrGBS0o7GxG4ZJ_PJ3xneGgs_aem_ZmFrZWR1bW15MTZieXRlcw

    J is for Jerry Wagner
    Jerry's Back! Well, sorta. One time only. If you have been wondering what he's been up to it is not nearly as exciting as a border town relapse. Mostly painting and being a dad. As always it is great chatting with him and as always thanks for listening. music: https://neglect.bandcamp.com/releases Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/AIFA Website: https://www.aisforalcoholic.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/A-is-For-Alcoholic-218005295665042/?view_public_for=218005295665042 Twitter: https://twitter.com/AIFApodcast?lang=en IG: https://www.instagram.com/aisforalcoholic/?hl=en Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4eBFkcsDEpOg1uzFQrX3qQ?si=Q2YSkVb0SeiGukvD-EC0Xw SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/user-179165459 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCASi1XpZ3HdWEqa-W_aanCg?view_as=subscriber Overcast FM: https://overcast.fm/itunes1408870161/a-is-for-alcoholic iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/a-is-for-alcoholic/id1408870161?mt=2 https://play.google.com/music/listen?u=0#/ps/Ivctepbseqikshnekafscwczqlq

    AIFA Conversation with Wolf
    Welcome to Wolf! My first podcast in a while. I found her on the internet duringg the height of the pandemic and found her content and presence to be inspiring and helpful. Come to find out she is sober and I had to have her on the show. What I found most striking in our conversation was that we don't always have to be in the depths of our alcoholism to be struggling. Thanks to Wolf for sharing and thank you for listening. music: https://neglect.bandcamp.com/releases Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/AIFA Website: https://www.aisforalcoholic.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/A-is-For-Alcoholic-218005295665042/?view_public_for=218005295665042 Twitter: https://twitter.com/AIFApodcast?lang=en IG: https://www.instagram.com/aisforalcoholic/?hl=en Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4eBFkcsDEpOg1uzFQrX3qQ?si=Q2YSkVb0SeiGukvD-EC0Xw SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/user-179165459 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCASi1XpZ3HdWEqa-W_aanCg?view_as=subscriber Overcast FM: https://overcast.fm/itunes1408870161/a-is-for-alcoholic iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/a-is-for-alcoholic/id1408870161?mt=2 https://play.google.com/music/listen?u=0#/ps/Ivctepbseqikshnekafscwczqlq

    AIFA Conversation with Taurmini Fentress
    Today I speak with my old friend Taurmini Fentress. A licensed independent clinical social worker with a MPA, she is a wealth of knowledge on the affects of drugs and alcohol especially in those experiencing houselessness. We discuss abstinence vs. harm reduction and how both can be implemented in different capacities depending on the person. Honestly, it is truly about meeting the person where they are. It is at the core of her work helping people. And should be the approach we use more.

    AIFA Conversation with Ian Gray
    Today I catch up with my old friend Ian Gray. 13 years sober brings with it a lot of wisdom and experience. Ian is no exception. We talked about the gift of desperation but also that we need not compare miseries to find a way forward into recovery.
