Veronica Valli: From Panic to Peace in Recovery

I had this life, so I was in a self-help group and I heard someone talk about fear and they spoke about fear in a way that I've never heard anyone speak about fear and that just did it for me.
Veronica Valli's story is one of transformation and resilience. In this episode of 'The Real Deal', she opens up about her tumultuous journey with alcohol and drugs, detailing how it all started and what finally pushed her towards sobriety. Veronica's candid recounting of her experiences with panic attacks and isolation paints a vivid picture of the struggles many face in silence.
She talks about the moment she realized her social circle was built entirely around drinking, prompting her to seek help from a self-help group. This pivotal decision marked the beginning of her path to recovery, where she learned to confront her fears head-on. But the journey didn't stop there. Veronica delves into the complexities of staying sober, touching on challenges like codependency and the added pressures of parenting.
Her story is a testament to the power of community and the importance of finding a supportive network. With raw honesty, Veronica offers a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction, showing that recovery is not only possible but can lead to a more fulfilling life.
