The second is from someone grieving the loss of two long-time friends who can't accept her new life in sobriety. Laura and Holly tackle these emotional topics head-on, offering their unique blend of empathy, wisdom, and real-life advice. They discuss the letdowns we face when our relationships don't align with our recovery goals and explore the hard choices we have to make between our well-being and the people we love.
