Lisa Smith's Story: From Addiction to Advocacy

But even if this didn't pan out in terms of where I live and what I'm doing and all that, the things that I've achieved in sobriety are way more important.
Picture this: You're navigating the bustling city life, trying to maintain sobriety, and then you meet someone who truly gets it. That's what happens in this episode of 'Seltzer Squad' as Kate and Jes chat with Lisa Smith, the remarkable author of 'Girl Walks Out of a Bar'. Lisa opens up about her journey through addiction, driven by an underlying mental health condition, and how she found her way to sobriety.
She doesn't sugarcoat the difficulties of coming out as sober at work or making new friends without alcohol as a social crutch. Instead, she shares real, practical advice that she's gathered over 16 years of staying sober. Writing became her therapy, eventually leading to her acclaimed memoir. If you're looking for hope, practical tools, and a sense of community, this episode is a must-listen.
Lisa's story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding strength in vulnerability and turning personal battles into a source of inspiration for others.
