In this conversation with Rosebud Baker, we trace a line from grief to grace: a political-family childhood near D.C., the loss of her little sister, finding alcohol, and then finding a room where people spoke her language. We talk about the slow work of sitting with feelings, Al-Anon, the beginnings of stand-up and writing, sobriety since 2006, pregnancy loss, IVF, becoming a mom, and the memoir she’s written along the way, Fully Baked. It’s a hopeful map for anyone who needs community, laughter, and permission to start again.
