Happy Holidays everyone! Rather than uploading a guest episode yesterday I thought I would come on and do a little mini episode after conversations with 2 amazing women, Dupe Witherick, author of A COCKTAIL of Clarity and wellness coach, and Lindsay Sutherland Boal, founder of She Walks Canada, an organization that is changing the world by empowering women to change their relationship to alcohol.
My view of addiction and alcoholism is widening as I head towards 5 years of sobriety (yay me! March 21, 2024 here I come!). There are just so many more resources now than there were back in 2019 when I got sober through AA. I LOVE AA because it saved my life. But I also found the right meeting (thank you to Jenni Fields - you are my saving grace) and I know AA is an old organization that can be hard for some people, women especially, to feel comfortable in. I can also understand the shift in terms, like "AF", or alcohol-free, sober-curious, etc. The key to EVERYTHING is that if you think you have a negative relationship with alcohol then it is time to start researching places and people that can help you. Resources that can help discover the WHY you might be abusing alcohol (hint, not all therapists can help! Sometimes it's better to work with someone who has actually gone through something similar).
WE DON'T HAVE TO SUFFER!!!!
