And I think if people are willing to look out there and see, like the guests you've spoken with the people I've spoken with, that there's hope and that you know it's nothing to be ashamed about Mm-hmm, absolutely well, Ms Beckett, thank you so much for your time.
Ever felt like you're trapped in a cycle you can't break free from? Becca Atkinson knows that feeling all too well. Growing up in a family with a history of alcoholism, Becca was always aware of the risks. Yet, as her teenage years gave way to her twenties, casual drinking turned into something much darker.
Becca found herself needing to drink until she blacked out, making reckless decisions and living a chaotic party lifestyle that only pulled her deeper into the abyss of addiction. In this episode of 'Knockin' Doorz Down', Becca opens up about her journey from the depths of alcoholism to becoming a beacon of hope for others.
She shares candidly about the excuses she made to rationalize her drinking—like not losing her job or kids—as if these somehow meant she wasn't a 'real' alcoholic. But as her life spiraled out of control, she realized the damaging stereotypes and misconceptions surrounding alcoholism. Now, as the host of the 'Unashamed Alcoholic' podcast, Becca is on a mission to change the narrative around addiction and recovery.
She emphasizes the power of community and support in overcoming addiction and highlights how crucial it is to change the language we use when talking about these issues. Her story isn't just about struggle; it's about finding hope and inspiration in the darkest of times. Tune in to hear Becca's incredible transformation and discover how you, too, can find support and hope on your own journey to recovery.
