Kara Jean’s Path to Sobriety: Finding Strength in Community and Creativity

I observed and I took notes and I listened and I watched how it worked, and I watched how people walked on the outside of the circle, not in the middle of the circle when people were talking and I watched how, or listen to how, they introduced themselves so that I could figure out how I was going to introduce myself.
Imagine making the life-changing decision to quit drinking in your twenties. In this episode of 'The Unruffled Podcast', hosts Tammi Salas and Sondra Primeaux sit down with their friend Kara Jean, who did just that. Kara opens up about the unique hurdles she faced, from feeling isolated to navigating a social world where alcohol often reigns supreme. She offers a refreshing perspective for anyone considering sobriety, proving that you don't have to hit rock bottom to make a positive change.
Kara dives into her 'Unruffled Toolbox', sharing three key resources that have been instrumental in her recovery: a sober book club and community, breathwork, and podcasts. Each tool has provided her with the support, inspiration, and motivation to stay on her path. Throughout their chat, Kara emphasizes the power of vulnerability and honesty, and how these qualities have been crucial in her journey. Spirituality also plays a significant role for Kara, offering her a deeper sense of purpose and connection.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the intersection of creativity and sobriety, or looking for practical advice on building a supportive recovery community. Tune in and be inspired by Kara’s commitment to living a creative, sober life.
