Rachael's Road to Sobriety: From Party Girl to Self-Prioritization

Recovery only happened for me because a client of mine, who she really saved my life. She told me that she was a recovered alcoholic after About Six Months of me sharing with her my drinking stories and my trying to control my drinking.
What happens when your identity is wrapped up in being the life of the party, but inside you're falling apart? Rachael knows this story all too well. In this episode of Recovery Internet Radio, hosts Rick Atwater and Rob Ryberg sit down with Rachael, who opens up about her tumultuous journey from teenage drinking to finding sobriety.
Starting with shots at thirteen and proud of her ability to outdrink the boys, Rachael's party girl persona masked a deeper struggle with emptiness and fear. She sought therapy for years, but never addressed her drinking problem—until a sober friend entered her life and changed everything. Rachael's happiness and gratitude are contagious, and her story is a testament to the power of support and sharing your experiences.
She highlights the critical role of having sober friends and emphasizes the importance of being 'the most important person in the room'. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that prioritizing your own recovery can lead to profound transformation. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that offers hope, compassion, and practical insights for anyone on their recovery journey.
