Carnie Wilson: Navigating Fame, Addiction, and Recovery
“Sometimes I get it sometimes like I say, like the only thing that's keeping me sober is that I'm not using- you know what I mean- like that every day I'm making this decision not to put a mood or mind altering substance into me, and you string enough of Those Days together and you're sober.”
Imagine growing up in the limelight as the daughter of a Beach Boy and then skyrocketing to fame with your own band. Carnie Wilson, founding member of Wilson Phillips, joins Dave and Chris on Dopey to share her rollercoaster journey. From a childhood surrounded by music legends to battling addiction, Carnie's story is both riveting and relatable. She opens up about how her early years shaped her struggles with substances and how she found her way to recovery.
This episode isn't just about the past; it's about the daily decisions that keep her sober and the unwavering support from her family. Plus, you'll get a peek into Dopeycon and the DopeyCon theme song challenge. Carnie's candid reflections make this episode a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction or seeking hope in recovery.
