In this episode, we have a special guest, Amanda, a mother, wife, and teacher, celebrating one year of sobriety. We dive into Amanda's journey of overcoming addiction, discussing challenges, triumphs, and the impact on her life.
We will talk about:
Starting at 1:46, delve into Amanda’s story, exploring her active addiction and therapy journey.
Transitioning to 5:38, the denial and how Amanda initially dismissed the severity of her addiction.
At 10:04, Amanda describes the emotional and physical toll of withdrawal during her journey to sobriety.
Continuing from 15:36, Amanda talks about the impact on her everyday routine, highs, lows, and the process of rediscovering herself.
Moving to 18:48, Amanda opens up about how her decision to quit drinking has affected her family, particularly her children.
Shifting to 28:50, Amanda imparts valuable advice to those grappling with addiction.
Finally, at 31:39, Amanda reflects on the decision to change, and talks about the ability to fully engage in life.
Key Takeaway:
If anybody is trying to get sober on their own, yes, it is possible. I know plenty of people who have done it. But I'm telling you, it is so much easier when you surround yourself with people who are also going through it or have gone through getting sober. - Amanda
