Eve LaDue: From Hollywood Highs to Humble Healing

What I had to learn in terms of accepting my disease is that I had the ism long before I ever picked up a drink and I was a workaholic.
Picture this: a successful film producer, deeply entrenched in the glitz and glam of Hollywood, suddenly finds herself grappling with addiction. In this episode of 'The Drunkalogues', Eve LaDue opens up about her unexpected plunge into addiction later in life and the profound journey towards recovery that followed. Hosted by Nick Morton, this conversation is anything but ordinary.
LaDue dives into the perils of workaholism, revealing how her relentless drive in the film industry masked deeper issues that eventually led her down a dark path. She doesn’t shy away from discussing the cutthroat nature of Hollywood and how it complicates the recovery process. But what stands out is her newfound humility and grace, traits she discovered through her struggles and triumphs.
LaDue’s story is a testament to the fact that addiction doesn’t discriminate, touching lives regardless of status or success. Her candid reflections on seeking support from like-minded individuals and the importance of surrounding oneself with understanding storytellers provide invaluable insights for anyone facing similar battles. Tune in for an episode filled with raw honesty, hope, and the reminder that redemption is always within reach.
