From Chaos to Clarity: Lisa's Journey Through Sobriety

Episode Overview

  • Lisa's upbringing in a family where alcohol was normalized
  • Her struggle with control and the facade of fitting in
  • Discovery of alcohol as a relaxant leading to addiction
  • Challenges with feelings of unworthiness towards God and self
  • Pivotal moment of realization in an A.A. meeting and surrender to sobriety
I still had my doubts about it... I was comparing... I was comparing. I remember why it was in a meeting. And some person, so here I was Miss High Bottom Drunk, right? So there's this guy talking and he's like... And that was the end of all that junk.
Lisa, one half of the dynamic duo behind '2 Sober Chicks', takes listeners on an intimate journey through her tumultuous relationship with alcohol. Growing up in a family where drinking was as common as breathing, Lisa found herself struggling with control and the need to fit in. Her Catholic upbringing added another layer of complexity, making her feel unworthy both to God and herself.
Alcohol initially seemed like a solution, a way to relax and cope, but it soon spiraled into addiction. In this episode, Lisa opens up about the pivotal moment that changed everything: an A.A. meeting where she finally surrendered to sobriety. This surrender wasn't just about giving up alcohol; it was about embracing a new way of life, filled with profound transformations.
If you're curious about the real-life challenges and victories in the journey to sobriety, Lisa's story offers a raw, heartfelt glimpse into what it means to truly let go and find clarity.
