Book Overview

This guide to the Twelve Steps from Dr. Stephanie S. Covington, a pioneer in the field of women's issues, addiction, and recovery, preserves the spirit of the Alcoholics Anonymous program with a focus on healing language with women's needs in mind.

Published in 1994, A Woman's Way through the Twelve Steps has long been a unique resource that helps women find their own paths in recovery--paths shaped by the way women experience not only addiction and recovery, but also relationships, self, sexuality, spirituality, and everyday life. Now, stories from five new voices expand the perspective of this recovery classic.

Over the past thirty years, what it means to identify as a woman in recovery has broadened to include transgender, nonbinary, and other gender-diverse people. This new edition includes updated, inclusive language to be more trauma-sensitive and welcoming to all women. This compilation of diverse voices and wisdom from real people illuminates how women understand the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and offers inspiring stories of how they travel through the Steps and discover what works for them. The book can be used alone or as a companion to AA's Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions.

By identifying and addressing the special issues that recovery presents for women, this book empowers women to take ownership of their own journeys and to grow and flourish in recovery.
