A Message Of Experience Strength & Hope
After spending over 30-years deep in addiction, I was completely out of control and couldn’t live with myself. I was lost, in pain and I needed help. The 12-Step programme, my Higher Power, and Fellow travellers have saved my life.
Starting out can feel overwhelming with a list of suggested daily actions at a time when life already feels unmanageable.
I built My 12-Step Coach to help you form new habits and maintain them during periods of change or turmoil. Structured routines help ground us and combined with progress tracking, insights, nudges and reminders, will help you stay on track and accountable - whenever and wherever you are.
I invite you to explore the many ways My 12-Step Coach can support your recovery. My sincerest hope is that you find your way home, one day at a time.
Thank you for your trust and your willingness to commit to your recovery.
Keep coming back, it works!
Multiple Fellowship from the Ground Up
When working multiple fellowships, it’s easy to feel scattered — with separate apps, literature, and routines for each programme.
My 12-Step Coach is built specifically for multi-programme recovery. You can track sobriety milestones and programme actions across all your fellowships — in one place, with no confusion or duplication.
-
Track multiple sobriety dates to easily manage different fellowships and key milestones.
-
Create Unlimited Programmes. Add as many recovery programmes as you need and see your progress for each — no limits, no confusion.
-
Simplify your programmes by choosing which programme tools, and content are relevant to you — so your recovery space stays focused and uncluttered.
Custom colour coding means intuitive and easy to identify - however you like it, such as programme action types, service work, sponsoring, different programmes, or even by priority. org it in a way that serves you.
-
Celebrate Fellows' milestones. Add other Fellows’ sobriety dates to acknowledge recovery birthdays and key anniversaries.
-
Every day in recovery counts! Track your sober time alongside the hours and money you’ve saved — a powerful daily reminder of how far you’ve come.
-
Access core features and resources even when you’re not connected to the internet.
* Online literature requires internet connection
All Your Resources in One Place
When you’re travelling or out of routine, it’s hard to keep everything together.
With My 12-Step Coach, all your essential resources live in one place — literature, prayers, meditations, inventories, and more. No more juggling multiple apps or having to carry several books just to stay connected to your programme — your programme stays portable, simple, and always within reach.
-
Read literature from several 12-Step Programmes* from Big Books, Daily Reflections, Steps, Promises, 12&12, and more across multiple recovery programs — all in one app.
* where publicly available
-
All your recovery tools in a single place. Work through Step 10, Daily Sobriety Renewals (DSR’s), and daily inventory formats from multiple fellowships.
Whether you need to process a disturbance, reflect honestly, or recommit to your programme, there’s an inventory here to meet you where you are.
-
Practice Gratitude. Studies show that Gratitude journaling increases life satisfaction and better physical health by 25% as well as activating the medial prefrontal cortex — the part of the brain associated with emotion regulation, empathy, and long-term decision-making. Over time, this shifts the brain’s baseline away from negativity and toward resilience.
-
Get Inspired. Daily affirmations created exclusively for My 12-Step Coach offer encouragement and spiritual grounding every day — each one aligned with the monthly principle to support your journey through the 12 Steps.
-
Discover over 50 recovery-focused Prayers to help maintain your spiritual connection.
-
Discover tools that deepen your journey. From the 3-Circles to daily practices, to inventories and literature, explore how various programmes use these tools and how they can support your recovery path.
Take what you like and leave the rest!
-
Regulate Your Emotional State. Breathwork is a powerful tool to regulate your nervous system and shift from stress to calm — fast.
Techniques included in My 12-Step Coach activate the parasympathetic nervous system (your body’s “rest and reset” mode). Just a few minutes have been shown to reduce anxiety by up to 50%, lower heart rate and blood pressure, and improve focus and emotional stability.
-
Support your recovery from the inside out with timed, and guided meditations.
Just 8 weeks of a regular meditation practice has been shown to reduce stress by 30%, improve emotional regulation, and even shrink the brain’s fear centre (the amygdala). At the same time, it increases areas linked to focus, and empathy — helping you feel more balanced and present in daily life.
Explore meditation sessions such as body scans, emotions, and spiritual hindrances to help you stabilise, regain perspective, and reconnect — only on My 12-Step Coach.

Listen to the Tradition Five Addiction Recovery Podcast – share in the recovery journey and listen to experience, strength and hope.

Accountability You Can Trust
Without clear tracking, it’s easy for our addict to convince us we’re doing fine — even when our programme actions have slipped over time. At the same time, many of us are our own worst critic, beating ourselves up for not working a perfect programme.
My 12-Step Coach helps you find the middle path: it automatically tracks your actions and check-ins, so you can stay grounded in reality over weeks, months or even years — neither denial nor punishment!
-
Focus on your actions not the admin. Whenever you complete a programme action — from a meditation to an inventory — your actions are auto-logged to your daily progress. No extra tracking or relying on memory.
At the end of the day, you can share a clean summary with your Sponsor in just one tap.
-
Accountability made simple. Share your daily progress with your Sponsor in one click — clear, honest, and effortless.
-
Get Insights on your programme actions. Get instant summaries across 7, 14, 30, 60, or 90 days — highlighting areas where your programme is strong and where there are gaps.
-
Take rigour honesty to a new level. Share programme summaries showing your programme actions and check-ins, giving your Sponsor an honest, objective view of what’s really going on.
-
Celebrate progress not perfection. Build confidence by acknowledging progress — even on the hard days. Recognising small wins helps you stay motivated, grounded, and connected to the parts of your programme that are working.
-
Strengthen habits - surface insights. Build daily consistency through focused challenges that encourage showing up today — not perfectly. Whether you’re building habits or surfacing insights, each check-in strengthens your recovery and sharpens your self-awareness.

Powerful Insights at Your Fingertips
Many of us struggle to understand how our emotions, life events, and recovery actions are connected — until it’s too late.
My 12-Step Coach helps you spot the patterns early before they spiral out of control. By connecting emotional states, programme actions, and life events, the app helps you make sense of your experience and take the next right step.

-
Move from confusion to clarity with insights that tell the real story of your recovery.

Instead of guessing or just going by how you feel, spot early warning signs and patterns that often go unnoticed — stay honest, not overwhelmed.
-
Don’t get caught out by your addiction creeping up on you. Powerful tools help you see how your patterns build over time, so you can respond early instead of getting hijacked when you’re most vulnerable.
