I found that those things have been harder to catch the longer I've been sober. You know, and when I talk to my parents I always say: because I can look back at pictures and I just see that self-loathing for myself that I had in me at a very young age and I would always tell my god, I was just so weird and they'd say you weren't weird, you were so cute, but like to me, it didn't matter, it didn't matter what anybody thought of me, because my perception was crooked.
Ever wondered how humor can be a lifeline in the darkest of times? Meet Lindsay C., whose journey through 12 years of sobriety is both heartwarming and enlightening. In this episode of the Spiritual Underground Podcast, host Dan Reeves sits down with Lindsay to explore her path to mature sobriety, marked by rigorous honesty and a no-nonsense attitude.
From the moment she walked into the studio, Lindsay's energy was infectious, blending straightforwardness with a touch of humor that made even the most tragic tales of alcoholism bearable. Lindsay opens up about her initial struggles, revealing how a suggestion from her sponsor to avoid relationships for the first year of sobriety helped her focus on her own recovery. This advice proved invaluable as she navigated the early stages of finding herself and overcoming self-loathing.
Her story is a testament to the power of asking for help and the importance of vulnerability in the journey to sobriety. Financial management is another crucial topic Lindsay touches upon. Despite her long-standing sobriety, she admits she's still learning what financial stability looks like and how to live without the fear of financial insecurity. This candid discussion offers a relatable glimpse into the ongoing challenges many face even after years of being sober.
What sets Lindsay apart is her ability to laugh at the insanity of her past, turning painful memories into moments of connection and understanding. Her perspective as a woman in recovery adds a unique layer to the conversation, offering insights that resonate differently than those from her male counterparts. Whether you're at the beginning of your recovery journey or years into it, Lindsay's story is a powerful reminder that self-discovery and self-love are ongoing processes.
Tune in for an episode filled with laughter, wisdom, and the kind of honesty that can only come from someone who's walked the path themselves.
