My goal in life now is to help everyone and anyone I can live their healthiest, happiest life.
Have you ever wondered how someone can transform their life after a traumatic event? In this episode of the Soberoso Podcast, host Dora Gosselin chats with Dr. Jennifer Shaw from San Diego, California. Dr. Shaw, a physical therapist, shares her incredible journey from a devastating accident to living a clean and sober life. After being hit by a car just three weeks into her dream job, Dr.
Shaw faced a long and painful recovery process, relying on 30 prescribed pills a day to manage her chronic pain and nerve damage. Despite being told she would be dependent on these medications for life, she decided to take control of her own healing journey. Challenged by a trusted friend to abstain from alcohol and relationships for six months, Dr. Shaw began her path to sobriety.
She discusses the significance of self-care, the impact of trauma on addictive behaviors, and how essential oils have played a role in her recovery. Additionally, she opens up about surviving a narcissistic relationship and the effects of gaslighting. Throughout the conversation, Dr. Shaw emphasizes the importance of routines and self-care in maintaining sobriety and leading a fulfilling life. Her story is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible, no matter how daunting the circumstances may seem.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration and practical advice on overcoming addiction and trauma.
