To be sober is to begin from a position of choice, and I think being queer is the same way that there may be these heteronormative standards for us to quote, unquote, aspire to or assimilate to.
What does it take to stay sober while embracing your true self? In this episode of 'gAy A: A Queer Sober Podcast', host Steve Martin-Bennet sits down with Jim C to uncover their personal journey towards sobriety. Jim opens up about their battle with alcohol dependency and how their sexuality and gender identity played a significant role in their addiction and recovery. Through candid storytelling, Jim shares the transformative impact of practicing sobriety on their physical and mental well-being.
Therapy and self-exploration emerge as crucial tools in Jim's journey, helping them to understand and accept their true identity. Jim also highlights the importance of physical activities like cycling as a form of self-care, emphasizing that sobriety is not just about quitting alcohol but about holistic self-improvement. This episode is a heartfelt conversation that underscores the importance of self-love and resilience in the face of addiction.
Whether you're part of the LGBTQ+ community or an ally, Jim's story offers valuable insights and inspiration for anyone on the path to sobriety.
