Ever wondered what it takes to turn your life around from the depths of addiction? In this heartfelt episode of 'A is for Alcoholic', John revisits a poignant conversation with the late Dayna Keyes. Though they only met a few times, their discussions were profound and revealing. Dayna opens up about her early struggles with alcohol and drugs, sharing how her life spiraled out of control before she found her way to sobriety through the 12-step program of Alcoholics Anonymous.
Her story isn't just about addiction; it's a tale of hope, resilience, and the transformative power of community support. Dayna highlights the crucial role that AA meetings and sponsorship played in her recovery, offering a sense of belonging and accountability that kept her on track. She also touches on the stigma surrounding addiction and the challenges it poses for those seeking help. But Dayna's journey didn't stop there.
She found solace in animal therapy, particularly through caring for cats, which provided her with comfort and a sense of purpose. Her passion for helping others led her to start a podcast called 'Recover Out Loud', where she shared stories of addiction and recovery, aiming to break the silence and stigma surrounding these issues. This episode serves as a touching tribute to Dayna Keyes and a powerful reminder that recovery is within reach for anyone willing to seek it.
