    This is such an important part of my recovery now! I love hearing these leads as I’m stuck in traffic, and I can listen to one of them instead of my own crazy head. Thank you to whoever makes this happen!!

  • Tony P talk

    He was great!! But unfortunately a woman named Ellie asked a question then proceeded to keep her speaker on as she was making very disruptive and distracting noises to what sounded like a cat. It was awful!!! And she was supposed to be listening to his answer but it didn’t happen. I thought there were moderators on there who could tell her to mute herself??!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ransom M | Kitchen Sink | October 3, 2026
Q: What is your daily routine and how do you turn your will over to a higher power?
The daily routine centers on morning prayer, a dedicated time on my knees, and the 11th-step prayer to stay present, plus being of service in my home meeting and other recovery activities; turning over to a higher power is an ongoing process that includes seeking guidance through prayer and remaining open to multiple meetings to reduce isolation.
Edward W | Light A Candle | October 3, 2026
Q: Can you describe a recent fear and how you managed it without turning to food?
He faced substantial debt and used gratitude for available resources, reframed debt as something manageable, and turned to spiritual practice and sponsor support to navigate the fear without resorting to eating.
Edward W | Light A Candle | October 3, 2026
Q: How do you balance participating in other programs while staying focused on OA?
By keeping steps in each program, staying in touch with sponsors, praying, and letting God be the through-line; the main OA program remains the daily priority, with selective balance through measured meetings and sponsorship across programs.
Melissa S | Virtual Kitchen Sink | October 3, 2026
Q: How has program impacted your relationships with family and friends?
She notes that relationships are not perfect; there can be estrangement with family, but the program has helped her become kinder, more patient, a better listener, and more focused on giving to others, which strengthens her connections.
Melissa S | Virtual Kitchen Sink | October 3, 2026
Q: Can you talk about taking actions when you really don't want to, and how that happens?
Melissa explains that discipline means prioritizing what she wants most over what she wants now, and that taking the action anyway—even with a bad attitude—strengthens her recovery and makes future actions easier.
