When you learn to deal with trauma without having alcohol as a crutch or drugs as a crutch, it's fucking hard, but you become so strong, and I think that surprised me the most in The Last Year.
Mary-Jane Parnwell's journey to sobriety is nothing short of inspiring. In this episode of 'Devil's Guide to Sobriety', host Jessica Everitt sits down with Mary-Jane, who has been living alcohol-free for five years.

It's not just about giving up alcohol; it's about finding new ways to cope and grow stronger. Mary-Jane's story is a testament to the power of resilience and community. Jessica and Mary-Jane also give a shoutout to 'Two Young Drunks', another podcast focusing on young people in recovery.

This episode isn't just about the struggles; it's about the victories too.
