Notes on Addiction, Dating & Contentment


Listen Later

Meet Lauren Windle – journalist, public speaker and lately author too, Lauren’s proudest accomplishment remains being clean from a cocaine and alcohol addiction which, in her words, ‘almost stole every good thing’ from her life.


Laugh, cry and identify with the honest account of a woman who has been there – unwrapping her stories of addiction and recovery, her passion to invest in others, and her heart-warming faith in a God who really does have good ideas when it comes to matters of the heart – even dating.


Why not continue the conversation and get your hands on Lauren's fantastic books:

Notes on Love: Being Single and Dating in a Marriage Obsessed Church (SPCK, 2021); Notes on Feminism: Being a Woman in a Church Led By Men (SPCK, 2024); Drawing As Prayer: Connect with God through the Bible and sketching (SPCK, 2025)


In the episode Lauren remarks that addiction can take many different forms. If you want to find out more about several fantastic recovery programmes that have been designed to meet you exactly where you’re at, check out her website:
