It's Not About the Alcohol

Recovering out loud--with Makini Campbell


Listen Later

In today’s episode, we’re holding space for Makini Campbell’s “coming out” about her status as a woman in recovery. For her, speaking on this podcast marks the beginning of a new chapter.

Serving as a highly empathic teacher and professional counselor to poverty-stricken communities, neglecting herself in the efforts to help others left her feeling broken. Like a mouse stuck in a maze.

Makini shares how asking for help in a safe space gave her the courage and support she needed to heal. She now sees her triggers as a call to practice self-care. Because the turmoil is coming from inside her body—not out there. Her definition of strength now includes vulnerability and self-compassion.

If you’d like to contact Makini to ask questions or work with her as a coach, her email is [email protected]. You can find her on Instagram @soul_reawakening and @pridefamilyservices
