I love the calmness, not having drama, and it's all the things are true that you hear in AA, that you live the wildest three, or what does it say, life beyond your wildest dreams like yes, yes, yes, yes, that, like all of those things, are true the more time that you get it.
Imagine living a fast-paced life in the spotlight, only to find yourself trapped in the grip of addiction. That's the story of Courtney Friel, a news anchor who has turned her life around and now celebrates over 11 years of sobriety. In this episode of 'The Payoff with Pete', host Pete Sousa chats with Courtney about her incredible journey from the chaotic days of cocaine-fueled college life and high-pressure newsrooms to a serene and fulfilling sober life.
Courtney, who spent six years at FOX News Channel before moving to KTLA in Los Angeles, is candid about her struggles and triumphs. Her book, 'Tonight at 10: Kicking Booze and Breaking News', dives deep into her experiences and is even set to become a feature film. Beyond her personal story, Courtney talks passionately about being 'of service' and helping others find their path to recovery.
She highlights the importance of AA and the twelve steps, sharing how these tools have helped her maintain a calm, drama-free existence. Courtney's honesty and openness offer hope and encouragement to anyone facing similar battles. Tune in to hear how she found success on the other side of addiction and how you can too.
