It's not one model fits everybody, and that's a real part I want to get through with all the people that I talk with is that it's not the step is right or wrong.
Imagine battling addiction while maintaining a high-profile career. That's the story of Sophie Aghdami, an addiction recovery coach who has walked the tightrope between professional success and personal struggle. In this episode of 'Removing Addiction and Healing Mental Health', Sophie opens up about her journey from Switzerland and the UK to Australia, where she now helps others achieve long-term recovery and personal growth.
Her career in marketing, working with iconic brands like the Royal Albert Hall and Heston Blumenthal’s restaurant group, was impressive, but it masked a 'highly functioning' addiction. Sophie shares how she turned her life around and now uses her experiences to guide others through their own recovery journeys. She emphasizes that addiction is often a symptom of deeper issues and stresses the importance of addressing these underlying mental health challenges.
Sophie’s coaching practice, The Wolf You Feed, and her co-founded venture, From Here On, offer tailored rehab programs for executives. Her message is clear: recovery is possible, and a fulfilling life awaits on the other side. If you're looking for inspiration and practical advice on overcoming addiction, this episode is a must-listen.
