I think having no god doesn't work for steps, right, you have to have something. She said: until you have faith, you can borrow mine.
Imagine battling alcoholism from a young age and emerging 26 years later as a beacon of hope and spirituality. That's the incredible story of Rev. Veronica Silva, who joins Beth on this episode of the 'Safe Home Podcast'. Veronica’s journey began on June 24th, 1996, when she decided to get sober from alcohol and drugs.
Her path to recovery has been deeply intertwined with her spiritual growth, largely influenced by her participation in AA meetings where she discovered a God of her understanding. This passion for spirituality led her to become a New Thought minister in 2020, right in the middle of the pandemic. Now, she serves as a registered nurse in a cardiac procedures unit, helping others navigate their fears and anxieties.
Veronica's story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about embracing the discomforts of life to find true freedom from suffering. In this heartfelt conversation, Beth and Veronica discuss the importance of removing judgment from the recovery process and how small steps can lead to significant changes. They touch on crucial topics like parenting while in recovery, setting healthy boundaries, and the necessity of self-love.
Veronica also opens up about dealing with childhood traumas and being an empath, offering listeners a raw and honest perspective on the challenges and triumphs of her journey. Her advice to those in recovery is simple yet profound: keep the faith and seek support from your community. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking for inspiration and practical wisdom on the road to recovery.
