My best advice is to deal with the now you know, like the one day at a time, or stop trying to figure out what the fuck's happening Tomorrow or dealing with what went down Seven Weeks Ago, like to be in the present, is so important.
Imagine losing several loved ones and a business, then finding solace in alcohol. This was Lori Windfeldlt's reality. As a stay-at-home mom, her casual drinking spiraled into a full-blown addiction. In this heartfelt episode of The SHAIR Recovery Podcast, Lori opens up about her tumultuous journey through addiction, trauma, and eventual recovery. She speaks candidly about how the loss of her father, brother, and aunt, combined with a failed business, led her to find comfort in alcohol.
But as her drinking escalated, so did the problems in her life, especially affecting her role as a mother. Lori's story is a raw testament to the power of vulnerability and community support. She reveals how therapy and being part of a supportive network of fellow recovering addicts helped her find strength. One of the pivotal moments in her recovery was rediscovering spirituality.
Raised Catholic but having drifted away from faith, Lori found a new sense of purpose and connection through her recovery journey. This episode also dives deep into Lori's struggles with unresolved trauma and mental illness. She emphasizes the importance of dealing with the present moment rather than getting lost in past regrets or future anxieties. By focusing on the now and taking things one day at a time, she found peace and purpose in her life.
Lori's honesty and openness about her struggles offer hope and encouragement to anyone facing similar battles. Her story is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible, and there's always light at the end of the tunnel.
