Shaw and Lara: Personal Tales of Recovery and Resilience

I'll never not be an alcoholic, but there's peace around the fact that I can survive a lot without a bottle, which is just not something I knew how to do for a long time.

She dives into the role of sponsorship in her recovery, shedding light on how having a supportive mentor can make all the difference. Her story is a blend of raw honesty and hope, offering listeners a relatable and uplifting perspective. Following Shaw, Lara takes the stage. With 11 years of sobriety under her belt, she shares a powerful narrative that touches on the highs and lows of her recovery journey.
Lara's story emphasizes the importance of community and the transformative power of AA meetings. She talks about rebuilding relationships and making amends, painting a vivid picture of what it means to find peace and stability after years of chaos.
