In this powerful episode, elementary teacher and TikTok creator Colbi (@collect.the.similarities) shares her journey from using alcohol as a social lubricant to finding authentic belonging in recovery. She discusses how postpartum depression accelerated her drinking, the moment she received "the gift of desperation," and why she now uses social media to create solidarity among sober-curious women. Colbi offers profound insights on the difference between "fitting in" versus "belonging," and how sobriety has transformed her relationship with herself, her children, and her community. A must-listen for anyone questioning their relationship with alcohol, especially parents navigating the challenges of modern life.
