Things happen and they hurt, but if you go back and try to heal them, it's never going to hurt as much as it did the first time.
Imagine battling cancer and then finding yourself using alcohol to numb the pain. That's the incredible journey of Victoria English Martin, a life-coach, dietetics graduate, and integrative nutritionist. In this episode of 'Steps to Sobriety', host Stephan Neff chats with Victoria about her path to sobriety and self-love after facing some of life's toughest challenges. Victoria opens up about how she turned to alcohol to cope with both physical and emotional pain, even after surviving aggressive breast cancer treatment.
Her realization that she was 'poisoning herself' led her to address the deeper issues behind her need to numb her feelings. She emphasizes that true healing requires confronting these root causes. Victoria also discusses her mission to dismantle the 'Mommy wine culture' and educate women about breast cancer. With a science-based approach to recovery, she aims to help others find their own voices and live empowered lives free from societal pressures.
Tune in for an inspiring conversation that highlights the importance of self-love, professional support, and the courage to face one's past.
