For me, I find it so freeing to just be honest with my work now, like when I'm seriously like running late and then be like, oh ok, like that's great. Yeah, I think it starts with the shame of lying, that that guilt that we feel like.
What happens when the masks come off and the truth is laid bare? In this episode of 'The Sober Gay', Dillan and Aubrey tackle the tangled web of lies often spun around drinking. From fibs told to seem more interesting to the white lies used to find solitude, they leave no stone unturned. The duo shares their personal journeys, reflecting on the guilt and shame that accompany dishonesty and the uphill battle of regaining trust once it's lost.
They don't shy away from the tough stuff, addressing how hard it can be to remember past lies and the painstaking process of cleaning them up in sobriety. But it's not all heavy; there's a liberating side to honesty that they celebrate. Dillan and Aubrey advocate for forging genuine connections through truthfulness, even when it's uncomfortable. Their heartfelt anecdotes and reflections offer a compassionate look at the challenges and triumphs of being honest in sobriety, especially within the LGBT+ community.
Whether you're navigating your own path to sobriety or supporting someone who is, this episode promises to be a thought-provoking listen that underscores the power of truth.
