If it were not for alcoholism, I would not have the faith I have today, I would not have the life I have today, and it's because of that that I've had to reach for God.
What if your biggest struggle became your greatest gift? In this episode of 'Let The Journey Begin', hosts Hilary Roberts and Jason Wahler chat with Polly Pistole, a woman who has been sober for over 40 years. Polly's journey is nothing short of inspiring. She opens up about her long road to recovery and how she now dedicates her life to helping hundreds of women battling addiction worldwide.
Polly also shares her unique perspective on why she views alcoholism as a gift rather than a curse. Her day-to-day practices, which have kept her sober for decades, are both practical and insightful. But that's not all. The conversation takes a deeper dive into the impact of trauma on addiction and the crucial role of self-care in maintaining sobriety.
Polly's wisdom extends beyond her personal story; she discusses the Red Songbird Foundation, an organization close to her heart that aims to provide support for those dealing with addiction and trauma. Founded by Hilary Roberts, the foundation creates a safe space for difficult yet necessary conversations. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a wealth of wisdom and hope.
Polly's story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of sobriety. Tune in to discover how faith, self-care, and community can turn the darkest times into a beacon of hope.
