I'm not interested in making progress on sobriety; I'm interested in making progress on living fully. That's a different tack.
Ever wondered what really happens behind the walls of a rehab center? In this episode of 'Alive and Free', Bob Gardner sits down with Amber, who offers a no-holds-barred look at her journey through addiction and recovery. Amber opens up about how alcohol turned from a coping mechanism to a catastrophe in her life.
She walks us through the daily routines, therapies, and classes that make up the rehab experience, giving us a peek into both the struggles and the small victories along the way. But it’s not all smooth sailing; Amber candidly discusses the low success rates of rehab programs and questions the effectiveness of traditional methods.
