I have always thought that keeping a very clear picture of what your drinking was like is one of the ways of avoiding this drinking on success, because, as you said earlier on, you've got the success because you've got sober, you know, because you've done so well, that's where the success has come from, and it's important to remember that.
Imagine hitting a major milestone in your recovery journey, only to find yourself tempted by the very thing you worked so hard to leave behind. In this episode of 'Soberful', Veronica Valli and Chip Somers tackle the tricky subject of 'drinking on success'. They explore how moments of achievement can sometimes lead to complacency and even relapse. It’s a candid conversation about why we might sabotage ourselves just when things are looking up.
Veronica and Chip remind us that the opportunities we get in sobriety are a direct result of our hard work and that staying vigilant is key. They share personal stories and practical advice on how to handle success without falling back into old habits.
