I felt understood and relatable, but, more importantly, I felt free.
Picture this: you're 22 miles into a marathon, exhausted, and on the brink of losing your mind. That's exactly where Nikki MacCallum finds herself in this episode of 'Dry Run: A Memoir'. Instead of giving up, she demands high fives from the crowd, drawing energy from their support. But that's not all.
This episode also flashes back to a younger Nikki, performing her one-woman show—a bold move suggested by her father after she struggled to book acting gigs in New York City. Through the fear of relapse and the challenge of social situations, Nikki finds her voice on stage and feels a profound sense of freedom and relatability. With support from her family and friends in recovery, she turns her fears into triumphs.
Featuring voices like Dina Laura, Kristen Cook, Jonathan Sharpless, Jonathan Sandler, and Justin Gentry, this episode is a rollercoaster of emotions, resilience, and self-discovery. Tune in to see how Nikki's marathon run and her one-woman show become symbols of her journey through addiction and recovery.
