If you're not going to have fun when you get sober, why the f*** are you getting sober? I don't need to do that in sobriety anymore.
Molly G. has been sober for 40 years, and her story is a testament to the joy and fulfillment that can come with recovery. In this episode of 'AutheNick', Molly shares her experiences, challenges, and the crucial role of fun in her sobriety journey.
She starts by reflecting on how important it is to have fun in recovery, stating, 'If you're not having fun when you get sober, why bother?' This philosophy has guided her through decades of staying clean from drugs and alcohol. Molly's early days of sobriety were filled with hurdles, but she found solace and strength in the 12-step program. She delves into how these steps helped her explore her inner self and build trust with others.
Serving others has also been a cornerstone of her recovery. Molly talks about her involvement in bringing AA and NA meetings to women in jail, a service that has become an integral part of her life. Setting boundaries has been another vital lesson for Molly. She discusses her experiences in romantic and intimate relationships and how she's learned to set boundaries that work for her.
The 10th and 11th steps of the program have been particularly powerful for Molly, helping her stay on the path of recovery and move forward. As she reflects on the ever-present threat of relapse, Molly emphasizes the value of education in maintaining sobriety. She encourages listeners to 'take a different road and turn towards the light because it's there, waiting for you'. Molly's story is a beacon of hope, showing that life in recovery can be joyful and fulfilling.
