Women in Recovery: Dora and Jennifer's Unfiltered Talk on Sobriety
Any mind-altering substance will take me further down the rabbit hole.
Ever wondered what happens when two women who’ve battled addiction come together to share their journeys? In this episode of Soberoso, host Dora Gosselin teams up with Jennifer Wylde from the Sober Exposure Podcast for a raw and real conversation about sobriety, mental health, and the ups and downs of recovery.
These two women don’t hold back as they dive into their personal experiences, debunk common myths about addiction, and discuss the controversial topic of 'California sober'—using substances like marijuana while abstaining from others. Dora and Jennifer also touch on the use of CBD oil in recovery, offering their perspectives on its benefits and potential pitfalls. But it’s not all heavy topics; their candidness and humor bring a refreshing lightness to the discussion.
They emphasize the importance of staying true to oneself in the journey towards sobriety. As Dora poignantly puts it, 'To thine own self, it all comes down to myself. I can't worry about what the rest of the world is doing. I'm talking about my sobriety, and my sobriety is life or death, because if I go out there, there's no coming back for me'.
This episode is more than just a chat; it’s an invitation to join a community that believes in recovering out loud. Whether you’re sober-curious, in recovery, or supporting someone who is, Dora and Jennifer’s stories will resonate with you. Tune in for an engaging, informative, and heartfelt conversation that reminds us all of the power of honesty and community in the path to recovery.
