Wendi, known online as Drink More Water, opens up about her unique journey to sobriety in this episode of the Life Beyond Our Wildest Dreams recovery podcast. Living in Texas and a mother of two adult children, Wendi's story is both relatable and inspiring. She shares how she began her sober journey during the COVID-19 pandemic, relying on Zoom meetings and online communities to find support.
Despite having a career, a family, and a home, Wendi experienced what she calls the 'not yets'—the looming consequences of her drinking that hadn't hit her yet but were always a threat. In a candid conversation with host Denise M, Wendi talks about navigating her early months of sobriety without a sponsor, finding strength in sharing her thoughts and feelings with others in recovery groups.
She discovered the power of self-love, which has transformed how she treats herself and speaks to herself daily. This newfound self-compassion has been a cornerstone of her recovery. The episode also highlights the importance of having a sponsor and learning from the experiences of those around you. Wendi's honesty and generosity shine through as she discusses the challenges and triumphs of her journey.
Her story is a testament to the fact that everyone's path to sobriety is different, but sharing and community support are universal keys to success. Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or simply looking for an inspiring story, this episode offers valuable insights and heartfelt moments. Tune in to hear Wendi's journey and discover how she found life beyond her wildest dreams.
