Those steps may seem really tiresome, they may seem really far apart and difficult to climb, but one step at a time, one aa step at a time.
Imagine standing at the bottom of a long staircase, unsure of what lies ahead. That’s the metaphor Lauren uses to describe her journey to sobriety in this episode of 'Canadian Sober EH!'.
Host Dougie Fresh sits down with Lauren to discuss her powerful quote, 'You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.' Lauren opens up about her life as a high-functioning individual struggling with substance use disorder and how she took that crucial first step towards recovery. She shares the highs and lows of her journey, emphasizing the importance of community support and treatment in achieving sobriety.
The conversation delves into the unique challenges of maintaining sobriety while being active on social media and explores various pathways to recovery. Lauren also touches on the impact of the opioid crisis on her recovery process and highlights how finding humor and joy in sobriety has been vital for her well-being.
Through her story, Lauren illustrates that while the steps towards recovery may seem daunting and far apart, taking them one at a time can lead to a fulfilling and sober life. Tune in to hear Lauren's inspiring journey and discover how you, too, can take that first step towards a brighter future.
