Anita's Journey: Finding a Sober Mentor and Embracing Gratitude

When you stop drinking, you resort to the maturity you were before you started drinking. This would mean that I have years with zero improvements to my behavior.
What does it take to stay sober for two weeks? In this episode, Anita Drake is on day 14 of her sobriety journey and is looking for a sponsor—someone who has what she wants, even if she’s not entirely sure what that is yet. As she navigates the early days of recovery, Anita explores the world of support meetings, discovering their varied formats and topics. These meetings become a safe haven where she can share her struggles and triumphs openly.
But the real gem in this episode is Anita’s newfound appreciation for gratitude. By jotting down things she's thankful for each night, she manages to shift her focus from what’s missing in her life to what she already has. This simple act becomes a powerful tool in maintaining her positivity and motivation. Anita also dives into the emotional rollercoaster of sobriety, touching on the universal challenge of dealing with resentments.
She learns that harboring grudges can be a quick path to relapse but also discovers the joy of experiencing life without alcohol’s haze. Her journey is filled with personal reflections, from the nerves of asking someone to be her sponsor to the disappointment when they decline. Anita also shares how music and art have become healing outlets for her.
This episode is both entertaining and thought-provoking, reminding us all of the importance of support systems, working through our resentments, and finding gratitude in the everyday moments. Join Anita as she navigates the complexities of early sobriety and discovers the transformative power of having a sober mentor.
