If I don’t ask for help, I’m miserable, but when I ask for help really beautiful things happen.
Imagine hitting rock bottom at just 24 years old and then finding a way to rebuild your life from the ground up. That's exactly what Skye did, and she shares her incredible story on this episode of the 'Keep Coming Back Podcast'. Skye opens up about the dark days of her drinking, where self-hatred was a constant companion.
Fast forward two years into her sobriety, and she’s discovered a newfound love for herself and others, all thanks to the support of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Skye’s candidness is both heart-wrenching and inspiring. She talks about how asking for help changed everything for her. “If I don’t ask for help, I’m miserable, but when I ask for help really beautiful things happen”, she says.
This episode isn't just about Skye's battle with alcohol; it's about the emotional rollercoaster that comes with it—feelings of inadequacy, dealing with loss, and the slow but steady climb to self-acceptance. Referred by Michael R., another AA member featured in a previous episode, Skye's journey highlights the importance of community and the transformative power of AA. She emphasizes that there is hope beyond our actions and that shame can indeed fade away.
Her story serves as a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is. Whether you're in recovery, know someone who is, or simply enjoy stories of personal triumph, this episode offers a raw and real look into the struggles and victories of sobriety. Tune in to hear Skye’s powerful journey and find out how she turned her life around.
