I almost want to end it here, but I you know, I am a coach as well, and it's all about reflecting- did I hear what you said and how did it impact me?

With her background in fitness and nutrition coaching, she shares how these elements became the cornerstone of her sobriety.
Kiola also sheds light on the epidemic of loneliness and despair, explaining how even those who seem well can be affected. She offers practical advice on changing daily habits and rituals to support sobriety. For instance, she talks about keeping her routine of making a drink but swapping out the harmful ingredients for healthier alternatives. This episode is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about thriving and finding joy in the journey.
Tune in for an inspiring conversation that highlights the power of self-care and community in recovery.
