Ever thought about how social norms influence our drinking habits? Amanda Hoffman's story is a compelling look at this very issue. As a wife and mother of two, Amanda seemed to have it all together. But behind the scenes, she was grappling with a severe alcohol addiction. She tried to keep up appearances, hiding her struggles from family and friends while attempting to maintain a 'normal' life.

From there, she joined Lionrock Recovery's online intensive outpatient program, which became a cornerstone of her recovery journey. Amanda's story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about challenging the social norms that often make it difficult to seek help. She shares her experiences candidly, offering hope and encouragement to others who might be facing similar battles.
