Andrea's Battle: From Wall Street Woes to Sober Strength

More people than you know have been where you've been, and don't listen to the lies that your own voice tells you. They are crying in your head, in your head, zombie, zombie, zombie.
Ever wondered how someone can rise from the chaos of addiction to find peace and purpose? Meet Andrea K., whose story takes us from the high-pressure world of Wall Street to the serene shores of sobriety. In this episode of the Soberoso podcast, host Dora Gosselin sits down with Andrea to explore her tumultuous journey through alcoholism, drug addiction, and eventual recovery.
Andrea opens up about her struggles with self-medicating to cope with the relentless demands of corporate life, her harrowing experiences with sexual assault, and the soul sickness that nearly consumed her. She recounts her darkest days in Montauk and how she managed to claw her way back to a life of clarity and purpose. With over 16 years of sobriety under her belt, Andrea's story is a testament to resilience and the power of recovering out loud.
She emphasizes the importance of breaking the silence around addiction and mental health issues, offering hope to those who feel isolated in their struggles. Andrea also touches on the unique challenges faced by sober moms and the critical role of a supportive community in maintaining sobriety. This episode isn't just about the pain and pitfalls of addiction; it's about the triumphs and small victories that come with recovery.
As Andrea says, 'More people than you know have been where you've been, and don't listen to the lies that your own voice tells you.' Tune in for an inspiring conversation that underscores the importance of community, honesty, and never giving up.
