In alcoholics anonymous, we allow you to find your own god. I mean I think we're all searching for connection to the divine. And you know, I don't think it could be a light bulb or a doorknob. You know, I look at the sunrise and I say my god.
Lauren's journey with alcohol began at an early age. A sip of beer at a family party when she was just six or seven sparked a curiosity that would soon grow into a full-blown addiction. By the time she was 14, Lauren was a regular drinker, earning a reputation as the life of the party. Her teenage years were marked by constant drinking, and even her job as a bartender allowed her to indulge without limits.
Despite her dreams of becoming an actress, alcohol took center stage in her life, derailing her ambitions. In this episode of Steppin' Out Radio, Lauren opens up about the turning point that led her to seek help. Unable to get through a day without a drink, she turned to Alcoholics Anonymous and found a spiritual connection that became her lifeline. Lauren discusses the importance of spirituality in recovery and how AA meetings provided a sense of belonging she desperately needed.
She shares, 'I couldn't stop drinking, I was sweating, I just was physically not able to get through a day without a drink. That's really just how it starts One Day. And from That Day forward I've just felt at home, in any AA meeting I've ever gone to.' Tune in to hear Lauren's candid reflections on her battle with alcohol and how she transformed her life through sobriety.
