Vulnerability, Sobriety, and Society: Misfit Stars on Personal Growth

I think that part of being the change that we wanna see in the world- I know it's like a very cliche thing to say, but really part of being the change that we want to see in the world- is doing our own work, and that's probably foundational, right, like it's probably the most important thing that each of us can do- is to address our own shit and do our own work and be there for others who decide they wanna do that for themselves.
Shannon Curtis and Jamie Hill, the dynamic duo behind Misfit Stars, are back with another episode that's sure to make you think and feel. Titled 'No Such Thing as a Sober Fascist', this episode dives deep into some heavy but crucial topics. Shannon opens up about her 'vulnerability hangover' after finishing the last song of her album, offering a raw look at the emotional aftermath of creative work.
Jamie, on the other hand, celebrates a major milestone: 18 years of sobriety. It's a moment of joy and reflection that will resonate with anyone on their own journey to sobriety or supporting someone who is. But the conversation doesn't stop there. They tackle the unsettling rise of fascist ideologies in the United States, particularly highlighting the Texas GOP's recent controversial decisions.
Shannon and Jamie argue that genuine personal growth is incompatible with such extreme views, suggesting that doing our inner work is key to fostering positive change in society. With their trademark blend of honesty, empathy, and a touch of humor, this episode is both thought-provoking and deeply engaging. Perfect for anyone looking to explore the intersections of personal growth and societal issues.
