Corey Winfield on Facing Life's Unexpected Hurdles in Recovery

Your recovery, you being sober, is what comes first. So anyway, Today, though it was, it was very difficult. I tried to just think: oh, I'll bury myself in work, I'll distract myself from it. And those, in my opinion, were bad habits.
Ever had a day where everything seems to go wrong? Corey Winfield knows that feeling all too well. In this episode of the 217 Recovery Podcast, titled 'Things Happen', Corey opens up about those unexpected life moments that throw us off balance, especially when you're on the path to recovery. Joined by his wife Marney, Corey shares a raw and honest reflection on a particularly tough day in his sobriety journey.
Instead of running from his problems, he chose to face them head-on, even if it meant shedding a few tears. He talks about the importance of allowing yourself to feel those tough emotions rather than burying them under distractions or work. Corey also warns against negative coping mechanisms like substance abuse and highlights the value of sharing your struggles with others.
This episode is a heartfelt reminder that it's okay to be vulnerable and that prioritizing your recovery should always come first. If you're navigating the rocky road of sobriety and need some genuine advice and encouragement, this episode is for you.
