I could not control how other people felt about addiction, what their opinions were, and nor could I actually convince them by a conversation right.
Imagine feeling ashamed of something you can't control. In this episode of 'You're Sober! Now What?', hosts Tamar Medford and Lane Kennedy open up about their personal battles with the stigma surrounding addiction. They recount their fears of being judged and how these fears initially held them back from seeking help.
But through their journeys in long-term recovery, they learned a crucial lesson: you can't change how others see you, but you can change how you see yourself and show up in life.
