I found myself spending all of my waitressing money, chasing that high, chasing that win which I never won, and I guess that was sort of a precursor for what was about to come with my alcohol use and addiction.
Imagine being a mom of two, juggling the chaos of daily life, and then facing the heartbreak of a divorce. That's where Megan found herself, and like many, she turned to wine to numb the pain. But what happens when that coping mechanism spirals out of control? In this episode of 'A Sober Story Podcast', Megan opens up about her raw and real journey from using alcohol as a crutch to finding her way to sobriety.
One fateful holiday weekend, alone and without her kids, Megan hit rock bottom. After waking up in the middle of the night drenched in sweat and consumed by anxiety, she desperately called out for help. Miraculously, she discovered an email offering her a scholarship to an online support group program. With nothing left to lose, Megan seized the opportunity, and it changed her life forever.
She completed the 100-day program and was so inspired that she started her own sober support group meetings. Now a certified health coach, Megan runs three women's sobriety circles each week and manages a thriving Instagram account (@sobahsistahs) dedicated to sobriety. Megan's story is a testament to the power of community and the importance of reaching out for help. Her candid discussion about overcoming shame and learning to assert herself offers hope and inspiration to anyone struggling with addiction.
Tune in to hear Megan's incredible transformation and find out how she turned her darkest moments into a beacon of light for others.
