Dayna B's Inspiring Sobriety Journey on The Bubble Hour

For me, everything I've done this last year that I've done sober has reaffirmed for me how joyful life can be in those little moments. Even the hard, hard, hard days are such a gift, because that's the other thing I know now, that there are going to be hard days, but I'm going to get through them.
Imagine reaching a breaking point where the daily stress of life feels insurmountable. In this heartfelt episode of 'The Bubble Hour', host Jean McCarthy welcomes Dayna B, who shares her poignant journey to sobriety. Dayna, a single mother of two, opens up about how she initially turned to wine to cope with life's pressures. But as her drinking escalated, it began to take a toll on her health and her family life.
She talks candidly about experiencing physical symptoms like a racing heart and overwhelming anxiety, which finally pushed her to seek help. With the support of an online group, Dayna found the courage to attend her first recovery meeting. Her story underscores the crucial role that community and support play in the path to sobriety. She reflects on the powerful connections she made with other women who were going through similar struggles, both online and in person.
These relationships provided her with the strength to stay sober, even during the toughest times. Dayna and Jean also dive into the impact of alcohol on parenting. Dayna speaks openly about how her drinking affected her relationship with her children and how sobriety has allowed her to become a more present and emotionally aware parent. She emphasizes the importance of modeling healthy coping mechanisms and being able to talk openly about feelings and experiences with her kids.
Throughout the episode, Dayna's story is filled with hope and inspiration. She shares how living sober has brought unexpected joy, even on the hard days. Her message is clear: sobriety is an ongoing journey of healing, filled with small moments of joy and the support of a caring community. Dayna’s experience is a powerful reminder that breaking the silence around addiction can lead to profound personal growth and freedom.
