Renee E: Embracing Sobriety Amidst Family Struggles and Loss

You are my god with skin on him, and when I can't feel god one-on-one, I almost always can hear god through you. So if I don't stay close to you guys, it's real hard for me to stay close to god.
Renee E's story is one of resilience and transformation. Growing up in an alcoholic family, she was no stranger to the chaos that addiction can bring. In this heartfelt episode of 'Sober Speak', Renee opens up about her own battles with alcohol, from trying to control her drinking to the moment everything fell apart, leading her to seek solace in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA).
Her journey through sobriety wasn't just about putting down the bottle; it was about finding strength in the AA community and discovering a spiritual path that helped her endure significant losses. Renee emphasizes the importance of daily contact with fellow alcoholics, describing it as the key to maintaining her spiritual condition. She candidly shares her experience of getting sober while pregnant and how her relationships within AA have been crucial to her recovery.
Through all the ups and downs, Renee's story is a testament to the power of showing up and staying connected. As she beautifully puts it, 'You are my god with skin on him, and when I can't feel god one-on-one, I almost always can hear god through you.' This episode is a touching reminder that in the darkest times, there is hope and strength to be found in community and spirituality.
