Imagine calling your brother from work and finding out that he’d killed your mother.

Author, blogger, actress and podcaster, Amy B. Chesler rushed home to find her mother, Hadas, in a pool of blood on the kitchen floor. 

So what would you do if after fifteen years in prison, your brother, who still terrified you, was up for parole? Would you ignore the hearing, hoping the board would do the right thing? Or would you attend the hearing and contest the idea that your brother was rehabilitated?

Imagine growing up with prosthetics from the thighs down.

Paralympic athlete, Roderick Sewell was born missing his tibia in both legs and he and his mother experienced homelessness for several years starting when he was just eight years old.

So what would you do if at age ten, you felt a freedom you’d never before known - in the water. Would you assume that your disability would keep you from being an athlete? Or would you grow up and train for the Ironman World Championships, becoming the first bilateral above-the-knee amputee ever to do it?

What if one year after your youngest son was born, you were diagnosed with stage four cancer?

Leadership coach, author and podcaster, Heather Chauvin’s family went into action, using their connections to make sure that Heather was seen quickly.

So what would you do if you realized that folks from the non-dominant culture might have had a completely different experience, and the only reason that you were alive was because of the color of your skin? Would you keep this information to yourself? Or would you talk about, all about it, and shine a light on this discrepancy?

Imagine lying on your sister’s living room floor thinking your life is over, that trauma and drugs had a grip on you so tight, it felt like dying was an option.

But five years after Dr. Elisa Hallerman finally got sober, she found herself waking up with a familiar sense of despair.

So what would you do if you were one of the top talent agents in the business, but you still felt like you were alone? Would you continue along your chosen path, or would you create and run the first-ever Recovery Management Agency and literally write the book on Soulbriety.

Laura joins fellow podcasters, Gillian Tietz, Eric Zimmer and Paul Churchill for a conversation during which they share their experiences in early sobriety. While each of their journeys is unique, there is also a shared understanding of what it's like in those first days of recovery. This episode will provide helpful insights, inspiration, and hope from those that have lived through such painful experiences and come out on the other side to share what they’ve learned, including:
