Redefining Recovery: The Sober Sisters' Take on 'Rock Bottom'

I don't think we're there yet, but one of the things to do is throw away this notion of you have to be a dysfunctional person or a broken person or an almost incurably sick person to let go of drinking poison.
Imagine almost drowning, both literally and metaphorically. That’s how Nicole kicks off this thought-provoking episode of the Sober Sisters Society Podcast. She and her sister Tammy dive into the outdated concept of 'rock bottom' and why it might be time to toss it out for good. They argue that waiting for a catastrophic low point before seeking help only adds to the stigma around problem drinking.
Instead, they champion the idea that each person should define their own journey to recovery, free from societal pressures or predefined notions. With their usual mix of humor and heartfelt honesty, the sisters share personal stories that illustrate the dangers of hiding one's drinking habits and the liberating benefits of choosing non-alcoholic alternatives. This episode isn't just for those who are already sober; it's a beacon for anyone curious about a life without alcohol.
Nicole and Tammy's relatable banter makes you feel like you're chatting with old friends who truly understand the highs and lows of sobriety. So grab a mocktail, sit back, and let the Sober Sisters guide you through a refreshing perspective on recovery.
