Kortney Olson: From Rock Bottom to Body Positivity

Something that I heard in a meeting in the last go around was: you are exactly where you're meant to be at every given second of your journey, and that was really comforting to me.
What happens when the world's 'deadliest thighs' take on addiction and body image issues? In this episode of 'A is for Alcoholic', host John sits down with Kortney Olson, a powerhouse in both fitness and recovery. Known for her incredible strength and larger-than-life personality, Kortney opens up about her struggles with addiction, driven by her battles with body image. She candidly shares her lowest point with Oxycontin and how she clawed her way back to sobriety.
But it wasn't just about quitting substances; it was about embracing a new lifestyle. Fitness and nutrition became her pillars, helping her rebuild not just her body but her mind as well. Kortney talks about the importance of self-love and acceptance, advocating for body positivity and kindness towards oneself. She also touches on the role of exercise in maintaining sobriety and how positive affirmations kept her focused on her recovery goals.
This conversation is a raw and inspiring look at the lifelong process of recovery, offering hope and practical advice for anyone on a similar journey.
