Sarah Brown: Turning Setbacks into Stepping Stones

The disease eats away your moral code and it was starting to eat away my moral code. We often struggle in silence, but there is hope for a better life.
Sarah Brown's life has been a series of hurdles, but she's turned each one into a stepping stone. In this episode, Sarah opens up about her struggles with alcohol, a challenge made even more daunting by a family history of alcoholism. Her interest in mental health led her to earn a counseling degree, but she chose a different career path. In 2013, she co-founded a business, only to face the heartbreak of shutting it down four years later.
The stress from this setback caused her to spiral deeper into alcohol dependency. A heartfelt conversation with her husband became the turning point she needed to seek sobriety. Today, Sarah thrives in a leadership role at a growing company and hosts her own podcast, 'Failing Forward', where guests share their own stories of overcoming failure. Her journey underscores the power of resilience, support, and finding new purpose.
Tune in to hear how Sarah transformed her life and continues to inspire others to do the same.
