In this episode, Matt celebrates 11 years of sobriety coinciding with his daughter's birthday, while Steve shares his perspective on marking recovery milestones. The hosts discuss how anniversaries serve as powerful symbols of hope for newcomers while acknowledging that everyone commemorates their sobriety journey differently. They explore the importance of service in recovery, whether through sponsorship, offering rides to meetings, or simply being available to others who are struggling. Matt and Steve emphasize that while their recovery has been rooted in AA, they recognize and respect that there are multiple pathways to sobriety. The episode offers encouragement to listeners that recovery is possible, no matter where you are in your journey, and that the common goal—not the specific program—is what truly unites those in recovery.
