Non-Consecutive Recovery| Breaking the All-or-Nothing Sobriety Myth


Listen Later

Gaby’s story is one so many people are living but few are brave enough to talk about. With two DUIs and multiple years of non-consecutive recovery, she opens up about what it really means to fall down, get back up, and keep trying anyway. On this episode, Gaby shares the messy middle — the shame, the restarts, the lessons, and the resilience it takes to keep choosing sobriety even when the journey isn’t linear. Her honesty breaks the illusion that recovery has to look perfect to be powerful.

Keta Loren and Gaby dive deep into the ins and outs of non-consecutive recovery, the taboos that keep people silent, and the preconceptions that make relapse feel like failure instead of feedback. This conversation challenges the “all or nothing” mindset and reminds us that every day sober counts — even if your timeline isn’t clean and tidy. If you’ve ever felt like you don’t fit the traditional recovery narrative, this episode is for you.
