Mack's Raw Journey: From Addiction to Artistic Sobriety

Relapse is so stigmatized and there's this negative tie to it, when it really is just a thing that happens sometimes, and the fact that you're able to look at it, as I learned a lot, and the fact that you even said that you felt your recovery during those moments is, I think that really speaks to how strong your recovery is.
Picture the first 90 days of sobriety captured in a gripping serialized podcast. That's exactly what Mack, the creator of 'F*cking Sober', brings to the table in this episode of 'Recovery Rocks'. Joining hosts Lisa Smith and Tawny Lara, Mack shares her intense and personal journey through heroin addiction, relapses, and ultimately, recovery. She talks about how she transformed her real-life experiences into the fictional world of Anita, the main character of her podcast.
The conversation also dives into the stigmatization of relapse and different perspectives on addiction and recovery. Mack's openness about her struggles and triumphs offers a fresh, unfiltered look at the early days of sobriety. Adding a musical twist, Mack discusses collaborating with sober musicians for each episode of her podcast, blending art and recovery in a unique way.
This episode is a raw and honest exploration of what it means to fight for sobriety and find creative outlets in the process. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Mack's story will resonate deeply.
