The two chatted about addiction and spirituality on Brown's podcast, Unlocking Us.
Hello, John! Franciscan friar and author Richard Rohr has been bringing the spirit of St. Francis to the wider world for decades. This week, he joined Brené Brown on her podcast, Unlocking Us, where they discussed passages from his best-selling book Breathing Under Water: Spirituality and the Twelve Steps. Breathing Under Water discusses the addictions and dependencies we all struggle with, walks through the Twelve Steps and their connection to the spiritual life, and demonstrates how letting go of certainty and embracing the unknown is key not only to overcoming addiction but also to becoming closer to God. | Breathing Under Water: Spirituality and the Twelve Steps is an essential read for anyone on a spiritual path. It's available wherever books are sold, including in our online bookstore (the most direct way for your purchase to support our mission). I hope it is as useful to you as it has been to Brené Brown! | Kelly Sundberg Director, Product Marketing | |
