Rethinking Alcoholism: A Chat with Cyndi Turner, LCSW

I never give all or nothing with people... That's why I don't like people immediately arguing with it and just, you know, abolishing it from their mind like it's not gonna work.
What if the traditional view of alcoholism isn't the only path to recovery? In this thought-provoking episode of 'The Sober Pod', hosts Sam, Devin, and Chris sit down with Cyndi Turner, a harm reduction therapist with a fresh perspective. Cyndi challenges the conventional belief that everyone with drinking problems must quit entirely. Instead, she advocates for the possibility of moderation for some individuals.
The conversation dives into her Alcohol Moderation Assessment and the mixed reactions it has sparked within the recovery community. Sam even puts himself in the hot seat, asking Cyndi if moderation could work for him. This episode also touches on the importance of meeting people where they are in their journey and building trust in therapeutic relationships.
If you're curious about alternative approaches to managing alcohol use or want to hear a different take on recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
