Imagine getting sober at just 19 years old. That's exactly what Beth Holden, known as The Sober Bitch, did. In this episode of 'We Are The Stigma', hosts Melissa and Cody Kreutz sit down with Beth to unpack her remarkable journey to sobriety.
Beth opens up about the turning points that made her reconsider her alcohol and drug use, the hurdles she faced in her first year sober, and how she managed to stay on track despite the odds stacked against her. She also discusses the absence of a supportive community for young people in AA, which inspired her to create her own space where others could find the support she once lacked.
This conversation isn't just about sobriety; it's about breaking down barriers and building a community for young people who are navigating similar struggles. The trio also touch on topics like homosexuality, the differences between teenage drinking and drug use, and the idea that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to recovery. Beth's story is a testament to resilience and innovation, proving that it's never too early to take control of your life.
Whether you're young and sober or know someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and a sense of camaraderie that can make all the difference.
