Growth doesn’t happen in the fantasy of “tomorrow.” It happens in the ugly, honest moments when we admit that two days off from discipline can snowball into chaos, and that relief is not the same thing as peace. We go straight at Step Seven—humbly asking a higher power to remove our shortcomings—and unpack why it demands more than a quick prayer. It asks for practice, for principles, and for a right-sized sense of self that makes change possible.
We trace the thread from Step Six to Step Seven: first, a clear view of attitudes and actions that don’t serve us; then, the daily choice to replace them with courage, love, and generosity. Humility is revealed as strength, not shame. It’s the shift from manipulation and hardened faces to honest requests and open hearts. Along the way, we confront the myths of control, terminal uniqueness, and the comfortable trap of self-pity that keeps us stuck and justifies harm. Ownership becomes liberating. When we accept that most outcomes flow from our choices, we regain the power to choose differently.
You’ll hear practical tools for living Step Seven: how to engage a higher power that meets you in real life, how to turn pain into a signal for readiness, and how to stop whacking the same mole only to watch it return. Instead, we enlist help to pull the pattern out by the roots—even when it shows up disguised as comfort, romance, or old stories about who we think we are. We talk boundaries and bravery: when love means staying, when love means leaving, and why making a plan is better than jumping without a parachute.
