In this world of duality we live in, you have to have both. We might temporarily have made it for a day or two after we complete a project or a task, but at the end of the day, the ego is always going to say we haven't made it.
What sets apart those who succeed in their sobriety journey from those who don't? In this episode of Recovery Elevator, host Paul Churchill chats with Becca, a 43-year-old from Montana who has been sober since September 18, 2017.

Paul and Becca dive into the critical elements that can make or break sobriety. They discuss the importance of taking responsibility for one's drinking habits and the power of not playing the victim.
Paul emphasizes that recognizing you have a problem is just the beginning; owning the solution is where real change happens. He encourages listeners to believe in their ability to succeed, highlighting that awareness and community support are vital components of recovery. Becca also talks about her life before sobriety, working as a chef and bartender, and how she transitioned from food addiction to alcohol dependency.
Her story is a testament to the resilience required to overcome addiction and the beauty of finding a new life without alcohol. The episode is filled with practical advice and heartfelt moments, making it a must-listen for anyone on their own sobriety journey or supporting someone who is. So, if you're curious about what it takes to make it in sobriety or need a dose of inspiration, this episode of Recovery Elevator offers valuable insights and encouragement.
