Veronica Valli: Finding Freedom and Healing Through Sobriety

If you do nothing else but work really hard on having boundaries in your life, your life will change.
What happens when the party stops and reality hits hard? Veronica Valli, a celebrated recovery coach and author, knows this journey all too well. In this episode of 'Let The Journey Begin', hosts Alex Meschi and Jaana Woodbury sit down with Veronica as she reflects on her 22-year sobriety milestone. Introduced to alcohol and drugs at a young age, Veronica initially saw substances as a ticket to fun and social acceptance.
However, a series of harrowing experiences, including hospitalization from a bad trip, forced her to confront the dark side of her lifestyle. Battling fears of inadequacy and unlovability, she sought help from numerous specialists before finally realizing that alcohol was the root of her turmoil. Veronica’s first year without alcohol was transformative, setting the stage for lifelong sobriety. She shares how establishing boundaries and becoming self-aware were crucial steps in her recovery.
This episode dives deep into the mental health struggles linked to substance abuse and the power of addressing unresolved trauma. Veronica’s candid story is a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction, emphasizing that recovery is not just possible but can lead to a fulfilling, joyous life.
