Your relationship to alcohol is important for you to truly truly understand. It's the clarity, it's the truth, it's the authenticity.
Imagine growing up in the spotlight, with millions of eyes watching your every move. For Christy Carlson Romano, former star of Disney's 'Even Stevens' and 'Kim Possible', this was her reality. But behind the scenes, Christy faced a battle that many child stars encounter: addiction. Starting at just 16, she turned to binge drinking to cope with her shyness, a habit that spiraled into a full-blown addiction embedded in her daily life.
In this episode of 'Addiction Talk', Christy opens up about her journey from the pressures of Hollywood to finding sobriety. Nearing her sixth year sober, Christy shares how she transformed her life, becoming a mother of two and carving out a successful career as a YouTube personality and podcast host. Her candid conversation covers the highs and lows of child acting, the relentless industry expectations, and the personal growth that led her to a place of authenticity and self-awareness.
Tune in to hear Christy's inspiring story of resilience and recovery, offering hope to anyone facing similar struggles.
