Motherhood and Recovery: Kelly Fitzgerald Junco’s Journey Through Grief and Healing

I think the word addict is just historically been used to demoralize people and to talk down about people and again reflects that there's something wrong with the person and not the substance.
Motherhood is a transformative experience, but for Kelly Fitzgerald Junco, it’s also been a journey through recovery, grief, and healing. In this heartfelt episode of 'Recovery Hour', host Lori Windfeldt sits down with Kelly, a sober writer and recovery coach known for her blog 'The Adventures of a Sober Señorita'. As Kelly commemorates her first Mother’s Day as a new mom, she opens up about the many layers of her life that have shaped her path to sobriety.
From the loss of a parent to the struggles with mental illness, Kelly’s story is one of resilience and courage. Lori and Kelly tackle some tough subjects, including alcohol use disorder, pregnancy loss, depression, anxiety, and postpartum challenges. Kelly's raw honesty about these topics makes for an engaging and relatable conversation. One particularly poignant moment is when Kelly discusses her choice to avoid stigmatizing terms like 'addict' and 'alcoholism', offering a fresh perspective on recovery language.
Throughout their chat, Lori’s empathetic approach allows Kelly’s vulnerability to shine, providing listeners with both inspiration and practical advice. Whether you're navigating similar struggles or simply looking for a story of hope and perseverance, this episode offers a compassionate look into the complexities of motherhood and recovery.
