I had struggled with anxiety my whole life, and alcohol was making things very, very hard for me, but I had, yes, and but I didn't really have like this rock bottom that we're so used to hearing about, you know, in other people's stories. But when I did stop, things got so much better for me.
What if anxiety could be the push you need to make a life-changing decision? In this episode of 'Naturally High', host Jeanne Foot sits down with Samantha Perkins, the author of 'Alive AF', to discuss her transformative journey to becoming alcohol-free. Samantha opens up about her initial fears of sharing her story and the surprising flood of support she received from other women facing similar struggles.
This outpouring of solidarity inspired her to write her book, aiming to connect with others on their own paths to sobriety. The conversation delves into Samantha's personal experiences with alcohol and the significant psychological improvements she noticed after quitting. She and Jeanne explore the stigma surrounding addiction and how it often prevents people from seeking the help they need. Samantha emphasizes that there is no universal solution to recovery; each person's journey is unique and deserves its own approach.
Motherhood also plays a crucial role in their discussion, highlighting its impact on mental health and the urgent need for affordable childcare and accessible mental health services. Samantha shares her journey of building confidence and overcoming anxiety, including her experience delivering a TEDx talk. The episode wraps up with a powerful message: finding your inner strength and taking steps towards holistic healing can transform your life.
Tune in to hear Samantha's inspiring story and gain insights into managing anxiety and achieving sobriety.
