Corey Burgess: A Journey from Addiction to Emotional Sobriety

"The insanity is just getting out of control, my husband's noticing, I'm hiding." - Corey Burgess on the SHAIR Recovery Podcast
What does it really take to turn your life around after battling addiction? Corey Burgess knows all too well. In this episode of The SHAIR Recovery Podcast, hosted by Omar Pinto, Corey opens up about her tumultuous journey from addiction to alcohol and prescription painkillers to celebrating one year of sobriety. Corey isn't a celebrity; she's a real person with a real story that many can relate to.
After getting out of treatment in August 2016, she faced multiple relapses but managed to find her way back to sobriety, celebrating a clean date of June 13th, 2017. Her story is a testament to the power of perseverance and the importance of emotional sobriety. Corey discusses how step recovery played a crucial role in her life and why idle time can be a dangerous trap for those in recovery.
She also shares practical tips on maintaining a healthy routine and building strong, supportive connections. One of the most striking points Corey makes is the necessity of accepting the need for sobriety. The chaos of addiction can easily spiral out of control, and recognizing that something is missing is the first step toward seeking help.
Corey's journey is a powerful reminder that you don't have to be famous to inspire others; sometimes, the most relatable stories come from people just like us. Tune in to hear Corey Burgess' inspiring story and discover how she found her path to a fulfilling, sober life.
