Breaking the Stigma: Claire's Journey from Addiction to Advocacy

You're battling a deadly illness and that should be celebrated says our special guest Claire who is the founder of Rehab Barbie and joins us from Brooklyn, New York.
Ever wondered how someone can turn their darkest days into a beacon of hope for others? Meet Claire, the founder of Rehab Barbie, who joins Dora on the Soberoso podcast to share her incredible story. At just seventeen, Claire realized her drinking was spiraling out of control. College life only made things worse, with blackouts becoming a frighteningly regular part of her routine.
But Claire's story is not just about the struggle; it's about the triumph of getting clean and sober by twenty-four and using her experience to fight the stigma around addiction and mental health. In this episode, Claire opens up about her journey, the importance of treating addiction as a medical condition, and the critical role of a supportive community in recovery. She and Dora dive deep into why it's essential to celebrate the battle against addiction and embrace one's potential.
Their conversation is raw, real, and packed with insights that will inspire you to take control of your life and seek the help you need. Tune in for a heartfelt discussion that breaks down barriers and offers a fresh perspective on recovery.
