I started noticing my relationship with cannabis was mirroring my relationship with alcohol. I couldn't moderate it after a while. And in a way that makes me upset for myself because doing it for a baby is easier than doing it for myself. But yeah, same with alcohol.
Ever wondered how someone can juggle multiple addictions and come out stronger on the other side? In this episode of 'Sober Stories', host Beth Bowen sits down with Meg Fee, the voice behind the popular Instagram page @youdonthavetodrink. Meg takes us on a raw journey through her life, starting from her upbringing in an Irish-American family where drinking was as common as breathing.
She talks about her experiences as a young professional in NYC, where the allure of alcohol led to frequent blackouts, regardless of how much she drank. But the story doesn't stop there. Meg opens up about how she swapped one addiction for another, turning to cannabis and eventually facing the harsh reality of cannabis withdrawal. She also touches on her struggles with disordered eating, making this episode a deep dive into the interconnected nature of various addictions.
Beth and Meg discuss the often-taboo topic of cannabis use within the sober community, offering a nuanced look at what it means to truly be free from substances. Meg also shares exciting news about her upcoming podcast, 'More Than Sobriety', which aims to support sober entrepreneurs. This episode is a must-listen for anyone dealing with multiple forms of addiction or looking for inspiration on their own path to sobriety.
