Just because you don't drink does not make you better. We were very icky and polished at looking good on the outside, but we were all kinds of screwed up on the inside.
Ever met someone who can make you laugh while sharing the deepest parts of their journey? That's Madeline P for you. Hailing from Happy Valley, Oregon, Madeline has been sober since 1985 and she brings her unique blend of humor and wisdom to the table in this episode of Sober Cast.

Madeline doesn't just talk about giving up alcohol; she dives into the emotional and mental hurdles she faced along the way. Imagine dealing with a tough boss or feeling isolated even in a crowd—Madeline has been there. She emphasizes the importance of honesty and support in her recovery journey, underscoring how Alcoholics Anonymous helped her grow not just as a sober individual, but as a person.
