I walked into this program with such self-loathing and so much shame and so much guilt and so much fear that to have that thought was just...
Imagine stepping into a room filled with strangers and walking out with a newfound sense of self. That's exactly what happened to Leslie J at the Big D Roundup in Dallas, Texas, back in 2005. In this heartfelt episode of Sober Cast, Leslie, who was seven years sober at the time, opens up about her battle with addiction and the road to self-acceptance.
Her story is not just about quitting alcohol; it's about embracing who you truly are and finding a community that supports you every step of the way. Leslie dives into the struggles she faced before finding Alcoholics Anonymous. She talks candidly about her addiction to people and the importance of finding happiness within herself. Through AA, Leslie discovered a power greater than herself, which played a crucial role in her recovery journey.
Her reflections on belief systems and spirituality offer valuable insights for anyone grappling with similar issues. What makes this episode stand out is Leslie's honesty and vulnerability. She doesn't shy away from discussing the hard truths of her past, but she also highlights the joy and freedom that come with sobriety. Her story is a testament to the power of community support and the transformative impact of self-acceptance.
Whether you're on your own journey to sobriety or supporting someone who is, Leslie's story will resonate deeply. It's a powerful reminder that recovery is possible and that embracing your true self is the key to lasting happiness.
