Meet Kim: A Sobriety Journey Unveiled at the Kitchen Table

I cannot wait to get home so that I can pop open a bottle of red wine and start and ease whatever it is. And then I'll, you know, throughout the day I'll say like, okay, so, but tonight, like tonight, I'm only having like two drinks. I'm going to wait until dinner and that will be totally normal. You know all these plans, all these numbers.
Picture this: Kim Palombo, the engaging host of 'Sobriety Corps', sitting at her kitchen table, sharing her deeply personal journey to sobriety. In this candid first episode, Kim's husband takes the interviewer’s seat, asking her the same questions she plans to pose to future guests. The result? A heartfelt and relatable conversation that sets the tone for the series.
Kim opens up about her struggles with addiction, from feeling out of place to using alcohol as a crutch to numb emotional pain. She recounts the pivotal moment when she sought help from an addiction doctor in her small town and how therapy played a crucial role in uncovering the root causes of her dependency. What makes Kim's story particularly gripping is her honesty about the control alcohol had over her life.
She talks about meticulously planning her drinking, trying to limit herself to a certain number of drinks each night—a scenario all too familiar for many battling addiction. Her journey wasn't a walk in the park, but she emphasizes that it's a continuous process of self-discovery and learning. One key takeaway from this episode is the importance of community support and vulnerability in recovery.
Kim's openness about her experiences and her willingness to share her story highlight how powerful it can be to connect with others who understand your struggles. Whether you're on your own path to sobriety or supporting someone who is, Kim's narrative offers hope and inspiration. This episode isn't just an introduction; it's an invitation to join a community where honesty and support are at the forefront.
So grab a cup of tea, settle in, and get ready to meet Kim—her story might just be the spark you need to embark on your own journey to sobriety.
