The Anxiety Chicks

225. The Stigma of Addiction and the Shame That Follows ft. Lauren Sisler


Listen Later

In this raw episode of The Anxiety Chicks Podcast, Alison and Taylor sit down with award-winning sports broadcaster and speaker Lauren Sisler, who shares her personal story of losing both of her parents to opioid addiction just hours apart.

Together, Alison and Lauren explore the emotional layers of grief, shame, addiction, and healing—and how our stories can become the very things that set us free. Lauren opens up about the stigma surrounding addiction, the complexities of family dynamics, and how telling the truth about our pain is the first step toward legacy and recovery.

If you’ve ever felt the weight of loss, shame, or silence in your healing journey—this episode is for you.
