Beyond Belief Sobriety News and Announcements: March 12, 2022

Weekly Meeting Tuesday March 15th at 8:00 PM Eastern, 7:00 PM Central, 6:00 PM Mountain, and 5:00 PM Pacific. It’s a Zoom Meeting with ID 883 3035 4802. I’ll open the room about 15 minutes early. No password required. This week our speaker will be Serge Prengle, author of “The Twelve Proactive Steps.” Serge has been on the podcast twice. Most recently, he appeared on Episode 239, and back in November of 2017, he was my guest on Episode 73. Serge is a therapist and life coach, and co-founder of the Integrative Focusing Therapy Online Training Program.

This Wednesday, March 16th, I’ll be posting episode 258 which will feature a conversation with Joanna Conti. Joanna is the CEO of Vista Research Group, and the Chair of the non-profit Conquer Addiction. She will talk about the importance of rehabs to measure and report their outcomes. This would be useful not only to inform those who are seeking treatment, but can also be used by the rehabs to make any adjustments to improve outcomes.

I’m still holding one-on-one meetings with listeners, so if you would like to chat with me, just book a time on my calendar and I’ll be there. I’ve had several of these listener chats, and it’s been a blast to get to know you better. Here’s the link to my calendar, https://calendly.com/beyondbeliefsobriety/one-on-one-meeting.

It’s also been fun to watch the private Facebook group take off. We have over 100 members now and I think it’s been a productive and supportive group. You can join at https://www.facebook.com/groups/beyondbeliefsobriety.

Think about supporting the podcast with regularly recurring financial contributions. It would be nice to have enough listener contributions to be able to pay for someone to edit the audio and video, as well as writing show notes. That would save me a tremendous amount of time and free me up to focus on booking guests, and preparing for and conducting interviews.
