Denise's 35-Year Sobriety Journey: Embracing Differences and Finding New Passions

Embrace yourself, try new things, and I think that that's the magical part in real growth, and I love that.
Imagine navigating the ups and downs of sobriety for over three decades. That's exactly what Denise has done, and in this episode of 'Dismantled Life', she opens up about her 35+ year journey in recovery. Host Anthony Capozzoli sits down with Denise to discuss the ongoing challenges and triumphs she has faced since starting her sobriety at just 21 years old.
From the initial steps of joining AA to discovering new passions, Denise's story is a heartfelt exploration of long-term recovery. She talks candidly about the periods of boredom and complacency, which she calls 'coasting', and how she overcame these hurdles by continually seeking growth. Denise reads three books a day focused on recovery and has even found a new passion in writing.
Her journey highlights the importance of embracing differences in recovery, whether it's through diverse support systems or finding unique pathways that work for you. Denise shares how she found a supportive community on Twitter and attends meetings with people from various fellowships, underscoring that there's no one-size-fits-all solution to sobriety. She encourages listeners to embrace themselves, try new things, and take it one day at a time.
Tune in to be inspired by Denise's enduring resilience and her message of hope, love, and strength.
