For me, I still go off a date, but I know there's a lot of women who have had slips and but they still work their recovery, they still show up and they're still trying to find a way that gambling doesn't become part of their story anymore.
Ever thought about turning your struggles into a powerful story? In this episode of 'The Broke Girl Society', Christina chats with Amy Zing Gray, who has done just that. Amy's journey from the depths of gambling addiction to finding solace in performance art is nothing short of remarkable.
Realizing she would often share her story through her Peer Support work, Amy decided to channel her experiences into a creative outlet—a performance show that brings her narrative to life in a unique way. Set in and around Portland, OR, Amy's show uses a fake game show format to provide some levity while tackling the serious issue of addiction. This episode isn't just about Amy's personal battles; it's also a testament to the power of art in healing and advocacy.
She dives into the emotional toll of addiction, the impact of grief and loss, and the importance of inclusive recovery programs tailored for women. Amy’s candid conversation highlights the need for forgiveness and self-care in the recovery process. Her story is not only inspiring but also offers a fresh perspective on how to cope with addiction. If you're looking for a blend of creativity and heartfelt honesty, this episode is a must-listen.
