I think it's really important that you maintain very strong relationships in your recovery community and you're talking to people about it.
Picture this: You're in a sales job where every deal seems to end with a round of drinks. How do you stay true to your sobriety? In this episode of 'The Courage to Change: A Recovery Podcast', Ashley Loeb Blassingame tackles this very dilemma. With 16 years of sobriety under her belt and extensive experience as a drug and alcohol counselor, Ashley offers practical advice for navigating a drinking-heavy work environment.
She discusses how to handle those awkward moments when everyone around you is raising a glass and you're not. One clever tip she shares is to discreetly inform the waiter that you're not drinking, but prefer to keep it low-key. Beyond these tactical moves, Ashley underscores the importance of staying connected with your recovery community. She believes that being open about your journey can actually strengthen relationships with clients and colleagues.
Vulnerability, she says, can be a powerful tool in building trust. Whether you're looking for non-alcoholic drink options or strategies for being upfront about your sobriety, this episode is packed with valuable insights. So, if you're finding it tough to maintain your sobriety in a sales environment, tune in and remember, you're not alone in this journey.
