Confronting Shame and Embracing Sobriety with Laura McKowen

The work that we're talking about is that ongoing work. And the reason I'm motivated to do it is because at the end of it is good stuff, and I've always been about the good stuff, like where's the freaking good stuff?
What does it really mean to be a 'drunk mom'? In this episode of the Soberful podcast, Veronica Valli sits down with Laura McKowen to tackle this tough question head-on. They discuss the often-hidden shame and guilt that comes with being a mother struggling with alcohol, and how society's views can make this even harder to bear. But it’s not all about the struggles; they also dive into the ongoing journey of sobriety and the positive changes it brings.
Laura shares her own experiences and emphasizes the importance of setting boundaries and reconnecting with your body as part of the healing process. She offers practical advice on how to shift your narrative and find the 'good stuff' that sobriety promises. Whether you're a mom dealing with these issues or someone looking for inspiration in your own recovery journey, this episode is packed with heartfelt stories and actionable tips that make the path to sobriety feel a little less daunting.
Tune in to hear two experts share their wisdom and offer a roadmap to a healthier, happier life.
