Lee-Anne Richardson: Finding Joy in Sobriety and Mental Wellness

I think part of it was that I didn't want to let people know because I didn't want people to see me fail, which is again selfish.
What happens when you mix a personal quest for sobriety with a passion for community support? You get Lee-Anne Richardson's incredible journey. In this episode of 'Recovery Survey', Lee-Anne opens up about her path to getting sober, starting from her early days of sharing her experiences on her YouTube channel, 'Addicted to Happy'.
Since 2014, she's been a guiding light for many who struggle with addiction, offering resources, meetups, and a sense of belonging through her initiative, Sober City in Nova Scotia. Over the years, Lee-Anne has gathered profound insights into the varied paths one can take towards recovery. She believes that while we're all unique, our struggles and triumphs often resonate on a universal level.
Her story is a testament to the power of self-care, the importance of considering how our actions affect others, and the beauty that lies in the recovery journey itself. One of the standout moments in this episode is Lee-Anne's perspective on overcoming the fear of failure. She highlights that each person's recovery journey is distinct and that sharing stories can be incredibly empowering. As she puts it, 'if you're also in recovery, it's like we're instantly family'.
