Beyond Recovery: Kathy & Nikki's Journey to Self-Discovery

Episode Overview

  • Recovery is a continuous journey that evolves over time.
  • Expressing emotions openly can alleviate mental health struggles.
  • Finding new interests post-recovery is essential for personal growth.
  • Family dynamics play a significant role in recovery processes.
  • Humour can lighten the load of heavy topics.
"We're all just humans out here trying to human, you know. We're going through it and we just need to be more open about it."
In this episode of the Untoxicated Podcast, hosts Matt and Sheri Salis welcome Kathy and Nikki, two women who have journeyed through the stormy seas of alcoholism alongside their husbands. Now years into sobriety, Kathy and Nikki are embracing the next phase of recovery, focusing on personal growth and self-care through their own platform, the Defining You podcast.
Their conversation is refreshingly candid, peppered with humour and sincerity as they discuss topics that go beyond the typical boundaries of addiction recovery. Kathy and Nikki share their experiences with a variety of subjects, from Lyme disease and anxiety to pet peeves and family dynamics. Their approach is genuine and relatable, as they aim to connect with those who might feel isolated in their struggles.
With their husbands in recovery, these two women have found a way to redefine their identities, exploring new interests and challenges that resonate with anyone who's ever loved an alcoholic. The episode takes a light-hearted turn with anecdotes about wigs and retreat nicknames, but it doesn't shy away from deeper discussions about mental health and the importance of expressing emotions.
Kathy and Nikki's chemistry is undeniable, making their dialogue engaging and full of insights that could be valuable to anyone navigating life after addiction. So, if you're curious about what lies beyond recovery or looking for an authentic conversation about life's ups and downs, this episode might just be what you need. Dive into the Untoxicated Podcast and discover how Kathy and Nikki are defining themselves in this post-recovery world.
