It's Bizzy Podcast

Today’s episode I spoke to the founder Feragaia, he’s from Scotland and went to the University of Alabama and we had a really good time on the show. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. 

Bill’s previous job was selling beverages that contained alcohol and he saw that there was a missing piece. He saw that there was a need for a non-alcoholic beverage that not only doesn’t have alcohol, it is made in his home country of Scotland and contains the natural ingredients from his region. 

One thing that I absolutely love is that Bill made a product that tastes delicious and it doesn’t have sugar! It is delicious! 

I hope you enjoy the show!

Freedom is such a gift that we sometimes take for granted. 

Today, I cherish the fact that I am entirely FREE! 

In today’s podcast I also talk about current events. 

The bottom line is that I am so grateful for so many things and most importantly my sobriety, being an American, and being able to share my experiences with all of you. 

Remember to reach out to your doctor prior to getting sober. 

I hope you enjoy today’s show!

It was great to meet Nicole, she got sober totally differently than I did. 

In 2020, upon admitting to herself that alcohol was not serving her or leading to the life she wanted to create, Nicole set out on a journey to figure out what things would look like alcohol-free. After an initially challenging time of change and introspection, Nicole eventually discovered the vibrant and rapidly growing alcohol-free community, both online and in person. This discovery—coupled with the realization that her new AF life held more beauty, depth, and joy than she ever imagined—inspired the creation of AFTER Magazine in 2022. The magazine’s mission is threefold: 1) to support people who might be searching for answers around their drinking and feeling alone, 2) to normalize sobriety and an alcohol-free lifestyle, and 3) to show just how amazing life can be AFTER giving up alcohol.

I am an alcoholic and the way I got sober was in the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous, in fact that was really the only way in 2006! I broke up with alcohol for good almost 18 years ago and my life has been absolutely amazing ever since! 

I don’t poo-poo people getting sober in other ways. In fact I think that if you stop drinking when you obviously have a problem with alcohol is a good thing. 

I hope you enjoy today’s show.

I have to thank my sponsor for today’s topic. She mentioned this to me yesterday when I was trying to work through something.

Today JF (my husband) and I talk about the similarities of living in an actual family that is battling addiction and the state of the Nation. 

We give you examples on how to navigate these unknown waters. One of which is just getting back to basics and letting GO! 

These are tough times and we need to come together rather than pull apart. 

We are all living under one Nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all. 

Being an alcoholic is but a symptom, as JF says. 

It’s time for more love and tolerance! And it’s time to get honest with what is working and what isn’t. 

We hope you enjoy today’s show.

It’s so crazy to think that you need a plan on the 4th of July but, there could be triggers and you probably want to stay sober even if it is a holiday. Can you imagine waking up on the 5th and being back at the start? If you do drink I would hope that you would be able to get back on the wagon ... .but, what if???

I am definitely not trying to scare you!

What I am trying to do is make you aware that holidays, even America’s birthday can be a trigger and you want to be sure that you take care of you! 

I hope you find today’s podcast helpful.

This week is the 4th of July and what better way to celebrate our Country's birthday than by having veteran Michael Le Buhn on the show. Michael is a chaplain, a veteran, a dad, a son, and a person in recovery. His story brought me to tears a couple of times. Michael is absolutely amazing!

Taking time to think of our freedoms and to say thank you is what being an American is all about.

Chaplain Michael Le Buhn received care from the VA and credits his therapist there for helping him get to the place where he is today.

Michael has so much courage and faith, we all can learn something from his story. I can’t thank him enough for serving our country and showing us that no matter how hard it was for him to reach out for help, he did it!

Michael didn't have a lot of choices after high school and enlisting in the military sounded like the best option. Where he grew up no one really went to college. His story starts in the military but today not only did he go to college but he also got his master’s degree.

Again I can’t thank him enough for coming on BLS.

What hasn’t happened yet for you? 

I haven’t gone to jail yet, what haven’t you done yet? Think about when you are drinking; all bets are off! Once you ingest alcohol your decision making is impaired and your motor skills don’t react as quickly as they would if you were sober. But we don’t think about that when we pick up a drink. 

In my opinion when we pick up a drink all we think about is that we can’t wait to feel the buzz. The warm feelings, the false sense that alcohol gives us. I know it made life more manageable for me. Everything was a little better when I had a drink in my hand during my active alcoholism. 

You don’t have to live like this anymore! There is a solution! 

God!

Prayer!

Meditation!

Friendship!

Hope! 

What is in your hot pink, blinged out toolbox?

Today I spoke to Mitch Motivates. He is an absolute riot! He lives his life one day at a time and loves being sober and helping others. 

He was down and out and now he is living a successful life helping others. Mitch was excited to tell me all about his new book, “My Addiction; My Super Power.” 

In his story, he talks about going to treatment when he was one week shy of his 19th birthday and how he stayed sober, relapsed, and came back! He has been sober for 16 years and is so grateful. I just loved speaking to him and I hope you do too!

In today’s episode, we talk about honesty, being transparent when you want to hide, and finding the voice to share with others! When we remove our crutch (for me, alcohol), we can’t mask or remove our feelings. We have to be willing to be vulnerable with ourselves and others. Being honest in every aspect of your life is one of the greatest gifts sobriety offers -- if we accept it.
