Balancing Health and Sobriety: Pawley and Michele's Journey

It's stepping into truth and being authentic, but even from the beginning, because at least in Northeast Ohio, where you and I both got clean and sober this last time, even within the range of step, you really are encouraged to pick one and stay right.
Ever wondered how weight gain and hormonal imbalances affect sobriety? In this episode of Recovery Cast, hosts Pawley and Michele open up about their personal battles with these issues. They share candid stories about the shame often tied to weight gain and the rollercoaster of hormonal changes that can accompany sobriety. But it’s not all heavy talk; they also reflect on the positive impact of their 12-step programs and the joy of their recent night out with fellow members.
Fitness, as they discuss, is more than just physical activity—it's a crucial part of their recovery lifestyle. Pawley emphasizes the importance of staying true to oneself in recovery, noting, 'Even within the range of steps, you really are encouraged to pick one and stay right'. Whether you're grappling with similar issues or just curious about the journey of sobriety, this episode offers heartfelt insights and practical advice for anyone touched by addiction.
