Sober During Crisis

Stay in the day.

Stay in the day.
 
From Sarah, I heard a lot of the same things I have heard over and over again in the rooms of alcoholics anonymous. But what I also heard was that drinking and trauma can sometimes go hand in hand, and that dealing with anxiety and trauma can really help make staying sober easier. She really advocates for talking to trained professionals outside of a 12 step program, and being honest with your entire team, including your dentist, about the fact that you're in recovery. 
 

This week we talk with Sarah of the Sober Gratitudes Podcast about her sober journey. She tells us how recovery has helped her to get through the global pandemic, what it's like to be a mom right now, and finding the right medications and daily routines in sobriety. We also discuss how grateful we are to be in recovery, whereas alcohol used to be the answer to all our problems. She shares Laura McKowen's We are the Luckiest as a resource. The conversation touches on topics involving parenting, gender politics, and sorting through childhood trauma.
