I say alcoholic, and I started saying that because I didn't say it for so long. If I just say I'm sober, it negates to portray all the work and the commitment that's in behind it.
When you think of the music industry, it's hard not to picture the wild parties and endless streams of alcohol. But what happens when a musician decides to step away from the booze? In this episode of 'The Unashamed Alcoholic', host Becca sits down with Canadian singer-songwriter Damhnait Doyle to explore just that.
Damhnait, known for her time with the Atlantic Canadian band Shaye, opens up about her decision to quit drinking and how it has reshaped her life both personally and professionally. She talks candidly about the challenges she faced in an industry where alcohol is often part of the job description and shares her thoughts on the need for better support systems for sober musicians. Damhnait's honesty is both refreshing and inspiring, as she addresses common misconceptions about alcoholism and recovery.
Her story is a testament to the strength it takes to go against the grain and prioritize one's health and well-being. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone navigating their own path to sobriety or supporting someone who is. Tune in for a heartfelt discussion that breaks down barriers and fosters a sense of community and understanding.
