Turning 30: Tara's Reflections on Sobriety Milestones with Dad

Just because I'm mourning or regretting something doesn't mean I don't have appreciation or like I regret where I am in my life.
Birthdays can be a mixed bag, especially when you're navigating sobriety. In this episode of 'Alcohol-isms: Dad. Daughter. Sober.', Tara and her dad, Dan, sit down to chat about Tara's upcoming 30th birthday. It's not just any birthday—it's a milestone that brings up memories, regrets, and a sense of lost time spent drinking. But it also marks a decade of sobriety, stability, and growth.
Dan and Tara have been through the wringer with alcohol abuse and have come out the other side. With decades of experience between them, they share candid conversations about their shared struggles and triumphs. This episode dives deep into the emotional rollercoaster that milestone birthdays can trigger for those in recovery. Tara opens up about her battles with OCD and mental illness, painting a raw picture of the years it took to find her footing after rehab.
She doesn't shy away from discussing the regrets that surface as she reflects on her twenties. But it's not all doom and gloom. Both Tara and Dan talk about the hope and lessons they've gathered along the way, offering a heartfelt look at what it means to move forward in sobriety. Whether you're sober curious, in recovery, or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a touching and relatable glimpse into the highs and lows of living a sober life.
