Mary Tilson's story is a compelling blend of professional success and personal transformation. In this episode, Jeannine chats with Mary, who once thrived as a marketing executive in Chicago. Despite her career achievements, Mary's life was spiraling out of control due to her cocaine and alcohol use. Recognizing the need for change, she embarked on a journey to sobriety in 2013, which led her to completely reinvent her life.
Today, Mary is a certified Professional Recovery Coach, Trauma-Informed Yoga & Meditation Teacher, and the founder of the Sun & Moon Sober Living Podcast. Her passion for helping others find freedom from addiction shines through her work, whether it's through her online community or her international wellness retreats. Mary shares how yoga, meditation, and nature played pivotal roles in her recovery, including a transformative 21-day hike through the Annapurna circuit.
She also recounts her time at a yoga and meditation retreat center in Cambodia, which she likens to an extended period of healing and reintegration. Now settled in the mountains of Colorado, Mary continues to inspire others with her story and her commitment to building a supportive sober community.
