We grow through our pain and we grow through the truth, and the truth doesn't come from a relapse.
How do you stay sober when you're drowning in grief? That's the tough question Debbie Strand tackles in this episode of 'Sober in the City'. Joined by guests Tom and Susan, Debbie dives into the heart-wrenching reality of coping with loss while maintaining sobriety. Both Tom and Susan share their deeply personal stories of how grief impacted their recovery journeys, shedding light on the emotional turmoil that can lead to relapse.
They discuss the critical role of support systems and community, offering practical advice for those navigating similar struggles.

This episode isn't just about the pain of grief; it's a testament to the resilience required to stay sober through life's toughest challenges.
If you're dealing with loss or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a compassionate and insightful look at how to find strength in the darkest times.
