“The great thing in this world is not so much where you stand as what direction you are moving." - Oliver Wendell Holmes 

In this episode, Laura shares her perspective and highlights:

  • Her struggle with performative motherhood before getting sober 
  • How embracing discomfort can lead to profound personal growth and a deeper connection with others 
  • Exploring our discomfort in saying "no" and the importance we place on others' happiness 

Laura Cathcart Robbins (she/her) is an author, freelance writer, speaker, and host of the popular podcast The Only One in the Room. Her work has appeared in HuffPost, The Tempest, and more. After years of hiding her addiction from everyone, now, with courage and candid openness, she reveals how she managed to begin the long journey towards sobriety and unexpectedly finding new love. Robbins harrowingly illustrates taking down the wall she built around herself brick by brick and what it means to be Black in a startlingly white world.
