In this episode of Sober Cast, Cathy B shares her journey at the Oceanfront Conference in February 2007. The theme is 'spiritual awakening', and Cathy’s story is a heartfelt exploration of her struggles and triumphs. From her early days of stealing liquor to her eventual spiritual transformation, Cathy’s narrative is filled with raw honesty and humour. She talks about her multiple attempts to get sober, the impact of her family, and the unwavering support she found in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA).
Her journey is marked by moments of despair, but also incredible resilience and hope. Cathy’s experience highlights the power of willingness and the importance of community in recovery. She emphasises that you don’t have to leave AA to find what you’re looking for – it’s all right there if you stay. Her anecdotes about detoxing with blackstrap molasses and orange juice, and her encounters with fellow AA members, add a personal touch that makes her story relatable and inspiring.
Cathy’s message is clear: sobriety is possible, and the journey, though tough, is worth every step. Tune in to hear her story and find a spark of hope for your own path to recovery.
