I think, also as someone who was really anxious and prone to be impulsive and sensitive, alcohol was a really nice numbing agent for me.
Ever wondered how someone breaks free from the chains of secret drinking? Meet Jean, a courageous woman who battled alcohol abuse and emerged stronger on the other side. In this episode of 'All Things Substance', host Betsy Byler sits down with Jean to delve into her compelling journey towards sobriety. Jean opens up about the struggles she faced as a secret drinker, a challenge that made it tough for her to convince others—and even herself—that she needed help.
But she didn't stop there. Jean found solace and strength in writing and hosting 'The Bubble Hour', a podcast that has provided a platform for countless recovery stories. Jean's story isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding community and support in unexpected places. She talks about the pivotal role of online connections in her recovery journey and how motherhood influenced her drinking habits.
From the highs and lows of her first year of sobriety to her insightful books on alcohol-free living, Jean's experiences offer hope and inspiration to anyone struggling with similar issues. This episode is a must-listen for those looking to understand the power of community and self-growth in the battle against alcohol abuse.
