Julie Bloom: Healing PTSD Through Sobriety and Rediscovering Purpose

By changing your life and by redefining your purpose, and quite often at midlife it means changing your careers or changing something in your relationship, making it's a time of storms, of big changes, but by doing that you have so many beautiful years, and that's what I try to do, you know, to inspire people to make the changes.
Ever wonder how sobriety can pave the way for deeper healing? In this episode of 'The One Day At A Time Recovery Podcast', host Arlina Allen sits down with Julie Bloom to discuss her incredible journey. Julie opens up about her struggles with PTSD and how getting sober was the first step in her path to recovery.
She talks about the toll alcohol took on her mental health, relationships, and daily life, painting a vivid picture of her lowest points and the turning moments that led to change. Julie doesn't shy away from the messy parts of her story, including facing a midlife crisis and feeling 'stuck' in her own life.
But it's not all doom and gloom; she shares how she managed to redefine her purpose and values, and the role self-care and community support played in her healing. Her candid account is a reminder that while the road to recovery is tough, it's also filled with opportunities for growth and renewal. Whether you're dealing with PTSD, addiction, or just looking for some inspiration, Julie's story offers valuable insights and hope.
