The most important part of not drinking is not drinking. There's no wrong way to not drink alcohol. You learn it as you start to feel your emotions again and when you learn the tools to cope with them...
What does it take to break free from the grip of alcohol addiction? Angela Pugh, host of the Addiction Unlimited podcast, joins Tricia Lewis on this episode of 'Recovery Happy Hour' to share her compelling story of sobriety. Angela opens up about her experiences, from the early days of planning every step to avoid drinking, to the profound realizations that came with sobriety. She emphasizes that there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to quitting alcohol; it’s about finding what works for you.
Angela’s journey is filled with relatable moments and practical advice that can resonate with anyone seeking a sober life. One standout moment in the conversation is Angela’s reflection on her time working in bars. She talks about how being surrounded by alcohol made her desensitized to its effects, impacting her ability to make thoughtful decisions. Angela highlights that drinking is often a symptom of deeper issues, and addressing those root causes is essential for true recovery.
Angela also shares her positive experiences with AA meetings, describing them as a place where she finally felt she belonged. She dispels the myth that one must attend meetings daily forever, instead advocating for consistent, manageable steps in recovery. Her insights into life coaching add another layer to the discussion, offering listeners a look at how understanding one’s thought processes can lead to better decision-making and a more fulfilling sober life.
This episode is packed with wisdom and encouragement for anyone on their sobriety journey. Angela’s story is a testament to the power of community, self-awareness, and the courage to make life-changing decisions. Whether you’re contemplating sobriety or already on the path, this conversation provides valuable takeaways and a sense of solidarity.
