Unless you stop drinking, it's only going to get worse. I think you know, a lot of people talk to me and say that they've been to a meeting, an aa meeting, and it's not aa per se, it's just that that aa meeting has been people who have, you know, been completely different to them, who may have been on the street, who've kind of lost everything.
Imagine finding a community that truly understands your struggle with alcohol and supports you every step of the way. That's exactly what Lucy Rocca envisioned when she founded Soberistas. In this episode, Lucy sits down with Vimalasara, the president of the Buddhist Recovery Network, to share her journey to sobriety and the creation of this unique online recovery community. Soberistas, based in the UK, has grown into a global network predominantly supporting women.
With over 50,000 members, it’s become a beacon of hope for those looking to reclaim their lives from alcohol. Lucy's own path to sobriety wasn't easy; she had to confront her self-destructive habits and dig deep into her underlying issues. She emphasizes that while sobriety isn't a cure-all, having a supportive community can make all the difference. Through Soberistas, women from around the world find a non-judgmental space to share their stories, celebrate their victories, and face their challenges together.
Lucy's advice is simple but powerful: seek out a community where you feel understood and supported. Tune in to hear Lucy's inspiring story and learn how Soberistas is transforming lives.
