Facing Grief and Loss: Sobriety's Toughest Battles with Lisa and Tawny

Unfortunately, shit will continue to hit the fan and we just need to keep creating spaces where we can talk about it and find healthy ways to deal with those really shitty feelings and keep on tracking yeah, and be there for each other and to know that on the other side of it, there is.
Grief and loss are two of the most challenging hurdles anyone can face, especially when you're on a sobriety journey. In this episode of 'Recovery Rocks', co-hosts Lisa Smith and Tawny Lara tackle these tough topics head-on. They dive into the different types of grief, from losing a loved one to the more subtle, yet equally painful, losses like the end of a relationship or even the loss of an old identity tied to drinking.
The danger of prolonged isolation is also on the table, as they discuss how it can magnify these feelings and make recovery even harder. But don't worry, it's not all doom and gloom. Lisa and Tawny share practical tips and healthy coping mechanisms to help you stay connected and sober through these tough times. Music, as always, plays a crucial role in their recovery toolkit, providing comfort and a sense of community.
They emphasize the importance of finding your own supportive network, whether it's through friends, family, or a recovery group. Their candid stories and heartfelt advice make this episode a must-listen for anyone dealing with grief while trying to stay sober. Tune in for a mix of empathy, practical advice, and a reminder that you're not alone in this journey.
