After a short break The ARC is back. This week's episode is a little different. Paul interviews Nella, who does not give us the usual life story, but keeps the focus tight on Recovery. Nella discusses her first eight years clean. In this time, she built a life, got the partner, great job, went to meetings, gained social acceptability with no sponsor or step work. From the outside looking in, things were looking good. Nella relapses, keeps coming back. A beautiful little angel comes into her life motivating her to get clean. This time around, Nella is doing things differently. Getting herself a sponsor, currently working and living the changes the steps have brought her.

Nella gives us an important story, discussing clean time as opposed to Recovery.
