Welcome!
My name is Lisa F. My studies and lessons with the 12 steps began over 50 years ago as an “Alateen” participant. Life with an active alcoholic made growing up nearly impossible and Alateen became the beginning of my journey with the 12 steps. After marriage at a very young age, the unmanageability of my life became more consuming and I was barely functional and consumed by raging fear. I added Alanon and ACA to my weekly meetings, alternating with private therapy off and on while managing merely to survive life and raise 3 children. Later in my life, I would also attend groups for NA, OA, ACOA, CODA, and at the age of 45 managed to receive a college degree in Psychology/Communications, to better understand, repair and cope with my fearful, dispirited life that was reduced to a 15 mile radius from my home.
When I eventually and miraculously found Herb K’s workshops and recordings, I realized I had not really been ostensibly “living” the higher and spiritual 12 steps but merely attending "talk" meetings. The profoundly, literal, deep dive meaning into the 12 steps was what was missing with my undeniable desire to find true relief. Shortly after joining Herb’s workshops, I was shaken to my core when my loved one was brought to death and revived twice, due to drunk driving. In the weeks and months that followed, through my participation in this newly found recovery work, I was finally willing and able to let go of the elusive death grip of control and break the chains of my self induced suffering, one link at a time. On the night that I experienced my first spiritual experience, I finally understood what is meant by “Let Go and Let God”, I stepped aside, too beaten to control even the smallest of my broken life's demands.
Since then, I have been graced with numerous spiritual experiences, and in the true spirit of the 12th step, I was called to return the gracious gifts of the 12 step recovery process. My focus is to help 12 step students, in any recovery fellowship reach their addiction recovery goals, while maximizing their potential for a spiritual experience, in order for them to be able to step more fully into their spiritual awakenings and experience the freedom the 12 steps promise. It is the student who will primarily guide this growth process, and determine their own pace and dreams. In this regard, I ask, "how free do you want to be"? Through the deep dive into the 12 steps (AA's Big Book, by Bill W) the chains of unmanageability will be removed. A key to understand this workshop as a guided journey that takes place over time through a relational alliance between the study of the 12 steps, the student (you), and your higher power (whether you have one presently, or not).
I Hope to meet you on the path to FREEDOM!
