If you were to give our listeners one action for the day, what would it be? I think, practicing radical self-compassion today, which is extremely difficult, and I have a really good book that I'm reading on it.
Imagine moving around the world as a child, never quite finding your place. That was Kayla Lyons' reality, and it led her down a difficult path. In this episode of 'Let The Journey Begin', hosts Hilary Roberts and Jason Wahler sit down with Kayla, the Founder and CEO of 1,000 Hours Dry and host of The Dry Life podcast, to discuss her journey from addiction to recovery.
Kayla opens up about how constant relocation in her childhood led to a lack of self-identity, pushing her towards drugs and alcohol during her teenage years. It was the loss of her grandfather that served as a wake-up call, making her realize that sobriety was a matter of life or death.
Now, four years sober, Kayla shares how she turned her life around by embracing radical self-compassion—a practice she describes as treating oneself with the same kindness you'd offer a good friend. She explains that while it's incredibly challenging, it's also essential for lasting recovery. Kayla founded 1,000 Hours Dry to provide accountability and support for those struggling with addiction, filling a gap she felt during her own recovery.
This episode is packed with practical advice on incorporating self-compassion into daily life and emphasizes the importance of support systems in the recovery journey. If you're battling addiction or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers valuable insights and a message of hope.
