Recovery Unfiltered: Denise Walker's Journey of Healing

Been relentless about picking this jagged, hurtful stuff out of my flesh, getting it out, that it does actually get better.
Imagine feeling like shards of glass are lodged in your body, a vivid metaphor for the pain and struggle of addiction. In this episode of the Detox Podcast, Denise Walker takes listeners through her personal battle with alcohol and the painstaking journey of recovery. Denise describes the process of removing the 'shrapnel' from her life—those jagged pieces that represent years of drinking and the physical and emotional toll it took on her.
She doesn't sugarcoat the pain but emphasizes the importance of celebrating each small victory along the way. Denise also tackles the societal narrative that ties alcohol to celebration and camaraderie, challenging us to find joy and self-worth without the crutch of a drink. She reminds us to accept compliments and recognize our own strength and resilience. In addition, she delves into the necessity of cutting out toxic influences and highlights the healing power of creativity.
Denise's story is raw, real, and filled with hope, offering a relatable perspective for anyone on their own path to sobriety. Tune in for an episode that is as much about finding inner strength as it is about the harsh realities of recovery.
