I think you see it a lot clearer, and the shame is still there, and I'm slowly learning that actually I've overcome so much, and the person I am now should be proud that they're not the person I was then.
Imagine walking the path to sobriety with your best friend by your side. In this episode of Sobriety Corps, host Kim Palombo sits down with Alex and Lisa, two friends who have navigated the ups and downs of sobriety together. Their conversation is a delightful mix of laughter, honesty, and heartfelt reflections. Alex and Lisa share how they made the decision to quit drinking, the hurdles they've overcome, and the immense benefits of having an accountability partner.
Their friendship has been a cornerstone of their success, providing mutual support through every high and low. They discuss how they've tackled social situations without alcohol, managed cravings, and found new ways to handle stress. Sobriety has not only improved their own lives but also strengthened their relationships with family and friends. The episode is filled with hope and encouragement as Alex and Lisa candidly talk about overcoming shame and self-doubt, emphasizing the importance of self-forgiveness and personal growth.
As Lisa wisely puts it, 'You have to forgive yourself because you can't change the past, but you can make the future much better for yourself and for everybody you care about'. The episode wraps up with a fun twist when Alex is asked what question she wishes people would ask about her sobriety.
Her playful answer: 'Can you do the alphabet backwards perfectly?' This light-hearted moment serves as a reminder that sobriety isn't just about giving something up; it's about discovering new skills and passions. Tune in to this inspiring episode of Sobriety Corps for a candid conversation that underscores the power of friendship and the hope for a brighter future.
