Terminally Unique: Sobriety's Hidden Challenges Unpacked by Kate and Jes
Just because you have struggles, doesn't mean that no one else does. It's just like you never know someone's struggles. So before you go being like, 'Oh, my life is so terrible,' maybe just pause for a second and reword how you're going to say it because you don't know what this person is going through.
Have you ever felt like your struggles are uniquely yours, especially in your journey to sobriety? In this episode of 'Seltzer Squad', hosts Kate Zander and Jes Valentine dive into the concept of terminal uniqueness—a feeling that can make you believe no one else understands your problems. They discuss how this mindset can be a roadblock in sobriety and why it's crucial to connect with others who share similar experiences.
The conversation gets even more interesting as they explore how narcissism, entitlement, and imposter syndrome can intertwine with sobriety. By sharing their own stories and observations, Kate and Jes offer a refreshing take on these complex issues. Kate's candid reminder, 'just because you have struggles, doesn't mean that no one else does', is a highlight, urging listeners to consider the unseen battles others might be facing.
If you're looking for a mix of empathy, humor, and real talk about staying sober in the city, this episode is a must-listen.
