Detached

Welcome back! This week we talk about the "yets". Sierra talks about what could or really would have happened had she kept drinking. We both reflect on what our lives could look like today had we not gotten into recovery and the gratitude to be had in that. We also talk about what keeps us coming back to meetings and how prioritizing recovery can be challenging at times.

Hello and happy June / start of summer! This week we talk about what "sober curious" means, societal perspective and pressure around drinking, and our own opinions on N/A beverages. Hannajane talks about the negative effects drinking can have physically and mentally, even as someone who isn't an alcoholic and how we can make the best choices for ourselves without having to always label things.

Change is on our minds. Whether we seek it or it happens unexpectedly, change is a constant in our lives. This week on Detached, we dive into the beauty and necessity of change, sharing how it has shaped our journeys. We discuss the transformative power of embracing change, and how our reactions can turn challenges into opportunities for growth.

We have yet another lovely guest on the show this week! Kara E (Sierra's sponsor in AA) is back again to share her experience, strength and hope with us. She talks about how her recovery has shifted over the last 8 years, and what her experience with sponsorship and service has been in the program. There were lots of good nuggets and laughs throughout this episode so we hope you all enjoy this conversation as much as we did!

We are so excited to share this lovely conversation with you all this week! We have Ivy O. on the podcast who is in recovery, participates in the AA program, and has a holistic practice and view of her mental, physical and spiritual health. She speaks about what her sobriety journey and consciousness journey has looked like, as well as what it's like to be a sober mom and how to navigate conversations around recovery with her adult kids. Thank you for your service Ivy! 

(Apologies for the audio this week, we were having some mic issues while recording and had to switch to Zoom halfway through!)

This week we talk about what it feels like to work a program, when you reeeeally don't feel like working a program. We discuss how we're the only ones in charge in our own actions (or inaction) and even when we don't know what next step to take, we know we have the ability to ask our higher powers' for guidance.
