We still have to move forward, and I have to tell you I have nothing but admiration for where you're at and what you're choosing to do. In the face of adversity, in the face of multiple challenges that you spoke of already, you are choosing to move forward and do different than what you did for years and years and years, and there's something to be said about that.
What happens when you mix humor, raw honesty, and the rollercoaster of sobriety? You get an episode of 'Sober & Shameless' that’s both enlightening and entertaining. In this episode, hosts Eric Andrew and Taylor Klinger welcome Brian, a fellow podcaster from 'Recovery Rising', who brings his own unique perspective on staying sober. Brian, who took his last drink in September 2019, opens up about his journey through the highs and lows of recovery.
He shares the heart-wrenching experience of losing his father unexpectedly at Christmas and then losing his job just two months later. Yet, through it all, he’s managed to stay sober, proving that resilience is key. The trio dives into the benefits of meditation, the struggles we face in sobriety, and the importance of being present during tough times. Eric talks about strength and accountability, while Taylor emphasizes empathy and speaking your truth to avoid being overwhelmed by it.
They also touch on how building new neuropathways can help us cope better with life's challenges. This episode is a testament to the power of vulnerability and connection in recovery. If you’re navigating your own sobriety journey or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers a blend of wisdom, humor, and heartfelt advice that’s sure to resonate.
