Erin's Journey: From Denial to Connection in Sobriety

The best part has been, I think, just being there for my life, because you don't realize, or at least I didn't realize, how much of it I was missing, you know, cause you only have a couple hours every evening with your family, and I was definitely drinking that away and not remembering things.
Imagine navigating the maze of high school and college with alcohol as a constant companion. That's Erin's story, a friend of the 'Get Connected AF' podcast. In this episode, Erin sits down with hosts Angey and Lori to unpack her journey from casual drinking to recognizing it as a problem during grad school. She opens up about the denial she faced regarding her drinking habits and how they strained her relationships. But Erin's story doesn't end there.
She bravely discusses reaching out for help, considering various treatment options like rehab and therapy, and ultimately finding unexpected joys in sobriety. One of the most touching aspects of Erin's journey is her newfound ability to be fully present with her family. She also shares her self-care practices and the ongoing challenges she faces in maintaining her sobriety.
Throughout the episode, Angey and Lori sprinkle in their reflections, making it a rich conversation about the power of supportive communities and the importance of connection in the sober world. Whether you're on your own sobriety journey or supporting someone who is, Erin's story is a beacon of hope and a testament to the transformative power of connection.
