Relapse Realities: Finding Your Way Back in Sobriety

This is what I have to go through and that when I get out the other side of this...I'm going to have so much to show for all this work I've had to do and figuring out how to have a healthy relationship.
What happens when sobriety doesn't go as planned? Laura McKowen and Holly Whitaker tackle this tough question in a deeply relatable episode of the HOME Podcast. They dive into what it means to relapse—not just by picking up a drink, but by losing your way emotionally and mentally. Have you ever felt overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, or confusion on your recovery journey? This episode sheds light on those dark moments and offers practical advice for finding your footing again.
Laura and Holly share their own experiences, making the conversation feel like a heart-to-heart with friends who truly get it. They emphasize the importance of meditation and self-care, not as quick fixes, but as essential tools for grounding yourself during turbulent times. The hosts also highlight the power of self-compassion and acceptance. Relapse isn't a failure; it's part of the journey. By embracing setbacks and learning from them, you can emerge stronger and more resilient.
Whether you're new to sobriety or have been on this path for a while, this episode offers valuable insights and a comforting reminder that you're not alone.
