I don't need to have shame in my story, um, I need to be open with it, and I was given this gift of sobriety, um, and if I could reach the me who is ready to die Nine Months Ago, I want to be able to.
Picture this: a mother of three, seemingly living the perfect life with a great husband, beautiful house, and amazing kids. But behind the scenes, Kelly Giannuzzi was silently struggling with postpartum depression and anxiety, heavily relying on 'mommy juice' to get through her days. In January 2021, Kelly hit rock bottom and made the brave decision to stop drinking. Since then, she hasn't looked back.
Kelly's journey to sobriety is unique; she didn't follow the traditional 12-step program but found her own way to recovery. In this episode of the Sober Friends podcast, Kelly opens up about her struggles and triumphs, offering hope to those who might feel that conventional methods don't work for them. She shares how her husband’s support played a crucial role in her journey, keeping alcohol out of the house and only drinking socially when they went out.
Kelly also talks about the challenges of attending social events sober and how she eventually found new ways to connect with people without alcohol. Her story is a powerful reminder that there is no one-size-fits-all solution to recovery. She emphasizes the importance of being open about her sobriety and the value of supportive relationships.
Kelly's words, 'I don't need to have shame in my story; I need to be open with it,' resonate deeply, highlighting the gift of sobriety and the impact of sharing one's journey. The Sober Friends podcast, hosted by Matt J, John I, and Steve C, provides a platform for stories like Kelly's, offering non-judgmental support and valuable insights for anyone on the path to sobriety.
Whether you're struggling with addiction or seeking support in your recovery journey, this episode is a must-listen.
