Stephanie, a compulsive overeating, and Nancy, a gratefully recovering compulsive overeater, host this workshop on OA’s Fifth Step: “Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.”
For Discussion and Journaling:
- What is your worst fear about Step Five?
- How do I pick someone to share my Fifth Step with? What do I want in this person?
- What are the benefits of doing this Step? What is my integrity worth to me?
- Do I understand the difference between humility and humiliation?
