Karin B's Path: From Addiction to Comedy and Healing

The reason why I have to open my heart and get real is because otherwise all the stuff that happened is just torture, and so to give it a purpose means everything.
Ever wondered how someone can turn a life of addiction into one filled with laughter and healing? In this episode of myRecoveryCast, hosts Ron H. and Dave F. sit down with Karin B, who began her recovery journey in Southern California back in 1976. Karin opens up about her early days at the North Hollywood Group, feeling like an outsider in Narcotics Anonymous, and the challenges she faced along the way. But her story doesn't stop there.
Karin's path to recovery also includes a touching reconciliation with her mother, a Holocaust survivor, and an unexpected yet fulfilling career in LA's comedy clubs. She reflects on the power of forgiveness, dealing with anger, and the incredible support she found in service and fellowship. This episode isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding purpose and joy in the most surprising places.
Karin's story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of recovery. Whether you're in recovery yourself, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about the journey, Karin's experiences offer valuable insights and inspiration. Tune in to myRecoveryCast to hear how she turned her life around and found laughter along the way.
