Hello beautiful listeners and friends.
Today I have the amazing Ash Butterss as my guest. She is a fellow yoga teacher and someone who is deeply involved in the self-development and recovery space and is the creator and host of the incredible podcast Behind The Smile which focuses on smashing the stigma around addiction.
Ash has been sober since February 2020 when she made the brave move to go into rehab in Sydney as her life was falling to pieces around her. She was very high functioning and able to hold a great job but a tragic loss close to her home and heart bought her to her knees and she surrendered. At that time she wasn't aware that she would be finding a way to live without alcohol forever and thought she was just going to rehab to 'learn how to drink.'
She generously shares with us her story of addiction, loss and leaning into her newly found sobriety during lockdown in Melbourne while alcohol consumption in the city was at an all time high.
I celebrate Ash's vulnerable share and the incredible work she does in the recovery space as a Holistic Transformation Mentor who helps people step out from behind the smile and live their authentic truth.
I hope you enjoy her incredible story of overcoming.
