Amy's Journey: From Methadone Lines to Recovery Advocate

I learned in treatment that I was much more comfortable around addicts and alcoholics than I was with my family. But I do not understand why you kept coming to those meetings because you thought they were about as stupid as.
Ever felt like the odds are stacked against you? In this heartfelt episode of 'All Our Affairs: Life Lessons in Sobriety', hosts Stewart and Leigh Ann sit down with Amy, who takes us on her remarkable journey from standing in line at a methadone clinic to becoming a beacon of hope in the treatment industry. Amy's story is a testament to the power of willingness and doing whatever it takes to stay clean and sober.
She opens up about her early struggles with sobriety, the hurdles she faced, and how she learned to embrace the principle of willingness. The conversation dives into common character defects in addiction, like impatience and the need for control, and how Amy tackled these through 'opposite action'. She also shares her experiences navigating social situations in recovery, dealing with feelings of judgment, and the importance of connection and support groups like Alcoholics Anonymous.
Stewart, Leigh Ann, and Amy discuss how small daily practices, such as simple routines, can lead to profound transformations over time. This episode is not just about staying sober; it's about thriving in recovery and finding strength in community. Whether you're new to sobriety or have been on this path for years, Amy's journey will inspire you to embrace willingness in your own recovery.
