Nicole's Journey: From Rock Bottom to Resilience

So I noticed I had that feeling- and I knew that like for me, in which I thought my core problem was pills, and maybe if I could just wrap my arms around that it'll be fine. So it was like this: back and forth, and back and forth for like Five Years.
Nicole L. opens up about her path to sobriety in this episode of 'Keep Coming Back'. At 51 years old, and sober since 1991, Nicole's story is a blend of heartbreak, humor, and hope. She shares candidly about her early days of drinking, the devastating losses, and the eventual turn towards recovery. Ever wondered what it means to 'drink like a man'?
Nicole dives into this phrase and explains the stark difference between hitting a physical low versus a spiritual one. But it's not all heavy. Nicole brings a light touch to the topic of dating while sober, sharing both the awkward moments and the victories. Her tales from the AA rooms are both touching and relatable, painting a picture of the fellowship that has been crucial to her recovery. Honesty and vulnerability, she says, are the cornerstones of her journey.
For anyone new to sobriety or struggling with their own demons, Nicole's advice is straightforward: stay committed and find your community. Nicole's journey is a testament to the power of support and the human spirit's ability to bounce back. Tune in for an episode that's as enlightening as it is inspiring.
