Addiction can make you not care about yourself, but there are ways to meet it head-on and fight it.
Angela Greene, the voice behind 'The Blah Blah Blonde', takes you on an emotional rollercoaster in this episode. She opens up about watching the DMX documentary, 'Music Box DMX: Don't Try to Understand', which deeply resonates with her due to her own struggles with addiction. Angela reflects on DMX's life, his raw honesty, and the relentless battle against his demons.
She draws parallels between his journey and her own, sharing heartfelt anecdotes about how her children were more aware of her addiction than she realised. Angela's candidness about her path to sobriety, nearing her five-year milestone, offers a mix of hope and realism. She admits that addiction can turn you into someone unrecognisable but also stresses that recovery is possible and worth fighting for.
Just as you're soaking in these heavy reflections, Angela shifts gears to a lighter, albeit frustrating, topic - her car troubles. Her beloved vehicle's motor blew, leading to a chaotic day of towing and the dreaded car shopping. Despite the setbacks, Angela maintains her humour and resilience, finding a silver lining in eventually acquiring a new (to her) minivan. Her storytelling is sprinkled with everyday mishaps and relatable frustrations, making it feel like a chat with a close friend.
This episode is a testament to Angela's ability to balance serious discussions on addiction and mental health with the lighter, often humorous aspects of daily life. Tune in for a dose of honesty, encouragement, and a few laughs along the way.
