If you don't, if your life doesn't change and it doesn't get better. It's kind of hard to get a pulse off just one meeting.
Feeling overwhelmed by the prevalence of alcohol in our society? In this episode of Recovery Elevator, host Paul Churchill vents his frustrations about the omnipresence of alcohol and shares his concerns about its destructive impact. Without the crutch of alcohol, emotions like anger and resentment can bubble up, and Paul doesn't shy away from expressing these raw feelings. Alongside Paul's candid reflections, you'll hear Katie's powerful story of overcoming addiction.
At 29, Katie has been sober for 496 days and has transformed her life through fitness, even running her first half marathon. Her journey began in college with heavy drinking, leading to insomnia and a reliance on Xanax. Moving from New York to Denver and eventually Dallas, Katie's struggle with alcohol and medication became a daily battle. It was only when she realized that the core problem wasn't being addressed that she sought real change.
Now, Katie emphasizes the importance of progress over perfection, showing that even small steps can lead to significant transformations. Tune in to hear how Katie turned her life around and how you can too.
