Do we need to be in the gutter, or jail, before people accept we have a bad relationship with alcohol? A high bottom is still a bottom. You get to decide when drinking becomes a problem. Nobody else.

March 25, 2024 How our Younger Years Influence our Drinking
Childhood pressure often leads to teenage drinking as a means of seeking relief. In this episode, Hilary Phelps candidly shares her own journey, highlighting the pressure to fit in and connect as a teenager, which ultimately led her to lose sight of herself. Now over 16 years sober, she reflects on the non-linear nature of sobriety, emphasizing that challenges still arise. Hilary's story is a reminder that no one is alone on this journey; by supporting each other through the tough times, celebrating the victories, and being our authentic selves, we can navigate sobriety together.
