Veronica Valli: From Addiction to Advocacy
If you want to check out that interview, I've posted the link to that interview on the share podcast private accountability group, and it will also be one of the bonus episodes on the share podcast labeled the ozone, featuring daniela park doing it sober.
Veronica Valli joins Omar Pinto on The SHAIR Recovery Podcast to share her compelling journey from addiction to advocacy. Veronica, the author of 'Why You Drink and How to Stop: Journey to Freedom', has spent over a decade as a therapist specializing in addiction. Her experience spans working with young people in the criminal justice system, primary care adult treatment, outreach services, and private practice.
But what makes her story truly powerful is her personal battle with alcoholism and drug addiction. In her twenties, Veronica struggled as a binge drinker, often needing a drink just to get through the workday. A chance encounter led her to seek help and turn her life around. Now, she uses her experiences to inspire and guide others on their path to recovery.
In this episode, Veronica discusses the importance of finding a sober mentor, deconstructing the old self, and reconstructing a new one. She emphasizes taking responsibility for one's internal well-being and the role of spirituality in recovery. Veronica also shares how sobriety has transformed her personal relationships and why she believes sobriety rocks. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration and practical advice on overcoming addiction.
