Sobriety was blacking out in Mexico which is not something that you want to be doing in foreign countries like at any time and especially as a young woman.
In this compelling episode of the Sober Motivation Podcast, host Brad welcomes Hillary, who bravely shares her deeply personal journey from addiction to sobriety. Hillary recounts her childhood in a chaotic household, which laid the groundwork for her struggles with alcohol and drugs. Her drinking began in high school as a social activity but quickly escalated into an addiction that isolated her from friends and family.
A significant turning point in her life occurred after a distressing experience in Mexico, where she found herself robbed and unable to afford basic necessities. This incident prompted her to reassess her life choices and commit to sobriety. Despite an initial relapse after four months of sobriety, Hillary persevered, finding strength in community support and personal determination. She emphasizes the importance of taking recovery one day at a time and engaging in therapy to support her mental health.
With over three years of sobriety, Hillary reflects on the joy and fulfillment she has found without alcohol, embracing a new identity and lifestyle. Her story is a testament to the transformative power of sobriety and the critical role of supportive communities in achieving lasting change. The episode concludes with encouragement for listeners to seek out community support and maintain hope in their own journeys toward sobriety.
