Veronica Valli's Take on AA, Feminism, and Personal Truths

I don't believe that aa is the only way you can get sober, right, and that's a big distinction too.
What happens when you mix a candid chat about recovery with a dash of feminism and a sprinkle of personal truth? You get a riveting episode of the HOME Podcast featuring Veronica Valli. Laura McKowen and Holly Whitaker sit down with Veronica, an author, therapist, and recovery coach, to discuss her unique journey through Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and beyond.
This conversation was sparked by a thought-provoking comment Veronica left on Holly's Facebook page in response to an article about the role of ego-deflation and humility in women's recovery. The episode dives deep into Veronica's history with AA, her perspectives on feminism, and her recovery from co-dependence. She opens up about how the traditional views on humility can sometimes be misunderstood in the recovery process, particularly for women.
Veronica also explores the idea of living one's truth versus not living it, emphasizing the importance of personal honesty in the journey to sobriety. Whether you're navigating your own path to recovery or simply curious about the intersections of addiction, feminism, and personal growth, this episode offers raw and insightful perspectives that are sure to resonate.
