It's about allowing ourselves to be afraid of what's going to come because we don't know. When I sobered up, I had no idea what this was. My mind can only see what it has to lose, because it can't see what it has to gain. We are creating our own reality by what we think, believe, and perceive. It's simple, but it's just not easy.
Imagine working in an industry where drinking is not just accepted but encouraged. Kimberly, our guest from the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia, knows this reality all too well. In this episode of 'Voices in Recovery', she opens up about her journey through alcoholism while navigating a career in hospitality. Kimberly's story isn't just about her struggles with addiction; it's about how she found her way out and now helps others do the same.
Growing up with a tumultuous childhood, Kimberly faced numerous challenges that led her down a path of heavy drinking. But it wasn't until she embraced nature, meditation, and self-reflection that she began to turn her life around. Today, she’s a recovery coach and a beacon of hope for those battling similar demons in the hospitality world. Her tale is one of resilience, transformation, and the power of finding purpose even in the darkest times.
If you're looking for inspiration and practical advice on overcoming addiction, this episode is a must-listen.
