Dive into the world of sobriety and sparkling water with Joakim Eriksson in this episode of 'This Week in Sparkling Water'. Joakim, with his signature humour, takes on the Lychee Fizzy from Chi Forest, describing its bottle design as a culinary red flag akin to papyrus fonts on restaurant menus. He rates the drink a measly 2 out of 10, lamenting its overly sweet taste and lacklustre bubbles.
But this episode isn't just about critiquing beverages; it's a reflective journey through Joakim's creative process and personal growth. He shares his struggle with perfectionism and the valuable lesson of moving on from ideas that aren't quite right. Joakim also recounts a poignant encounter at an AA meeting with a young man in early sobriety, drawing parallels between their journeys.
With sincerity, Joakim discusses the malleability of those in early recovery and the importance of support and community in shaping a happier future. Through anecdotes of his own experiences, he highlights the universal challenges faced by those battling addiction and the shared humanity found in recovery meetings. Joakim's candid observations on life, creativity, and sobriety offer listeners an authentic look at the highs and lows of recovery, wrapped in a comforting blanket of humour and empathy.
Whether you're looking for a chuckle or a moment of reflection, this episode serves up both in generous portions. Will you find yourself nodding along to Joakim's musings or questioning your own journey? Give it a listen and see where it takes you.
