Dave from Dopey: Raw Tales of Addiction and Recovery
“Think of it as like, uh, like a six-legged stool, and if one of the legs go out, you're still sitting on. I only bottom from the top, exactly, I don't even know what that means, but I like the sound of it.”
What happens when two worlds of sobriety collide? In this episode of 'Sober Company', hosts Lacey and Nik sit down with Dave, the voice behind the popular 'Dopey' podcast. The conversation is a rollercoaster through Dave's personal journey with addiction and recovery, peppered with raw, unfiltered 'war stories' that shed light on the highs and lows of his experience.
Dave opens up about the power of community in the recovery process, sharing how connecting with others who have walked a similar path can be a lifeline. He doesn't shy away from discussing the challenges of maintaining anonymity while wanting to share his story to help others.

The episode also touches on the importance of normalizing sobriety and making the choice not to use drugs or alcohol. With honesty and authenticity, this episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating the complex waters of addiction and recovery. It's not just a conversation; it's a testament to the strength found in shared experiences and the ongoing battle for sobriety.
