Beth Lapides: Comedy, Sobriety, and the Journey In-Between

One thing I do love in the book says...I don't have to take that action that I've been taking because I'm so sensitive...it is about getting outside yourself a lot of times.
Beth Lapides, the creative force behind LA's iconic comedy show UnCabaret, takes center stage in this episode of 'The Drunkalogues'. Known for her wit and creativity, Beth opens up about her journey to sobriety, which began eight years ago. Her path wasn't straightforward—she navigated through various experiences like geography shifts, yoga, eviction, and even angel healing before finding her way to a sober life.
Host Nick Morton, himself a comedian and recovering addict, guides the conversation with a blend of humor and empathy. Beth dives into what it means to be an addict, emphasizing the struggle of constantly trying to escape oneself. She also explores the beauty of uncertainty and the importance of trust and intuition in recovery. Through storytelling, she finds a powerful tool for healing and connection.
This episode offers a heartfelt and humorous look at addiction and recovery, making it a must-listen for anyone touched by these issues.
