Grapevine Podcast: I Wanted to Always Feel That Way [Season 10, Episode 24]

Jenna tells Olis and Sam that after a trauma at the age of 16 she tried drinking and that fixed it for her. But as an alcoholic she wanted to feel that way all the time. In AA she learned how to have fun sober, especially in young people’s groups. Jenna learned how to be of service in all parts of life. In Stump the Thumper, the questions compare phrases from the Big Book and the Plain Language Big Book. Jack A. shares about the benefit of Grapevine in his sobriety.
