Sarah Smith's Journey: Sobriety, Music, and Finding Truth

Sharing our stories and being vulnerable actually makes people realize that they're not alone in this world.
Picture this: a life on the road, performing hundreds of shows a year, all while navigating the challenges of sobriety. That's the reality for singer-songwriter Sarah Smith. In this episode of 'You're Sober! Now What?', hosts Tamar Medford and Lane Kennedy sit down with Sarah to explore her path to sobriety and how music has been her anchor through it all. Sarah opens up about growing up in a seemingly perfect family that masked underlying dysfunction.
Her journey to sobriety wasn't straightforward, but it's become a cornerstone of her life, helping her maintain a sense of normalcy amidst the chaos of touring and performing. Her story is a testament to the power of vulnerability and the importance of sharing one's struggles. Music, for Sarah, isn't just a career—it's therapy. She talks about how songwriting and performing have helped her process her emotions and experiences.
Whether she's playing solo with her acoustic guitar or with her full band, Sarah's performances are mesmerizing, drawing audiences into her world. But Sarah's impact goes beyond her music. She's deeply involved in social activism, supporting organizations like the Canadian Mental Health Association and Addictions Services of Thames Valley. Her story is one of resilience and hope, showing that it's possible to find light even in the darkest times.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone on their own journey to sobriety or supporting someone who is. Sarah's candidness and passion will inspire you to embrace your own path to healing and self-discovery.
