I feel like I'm really lucky to be an alcoholic. And one thing that was really big that happened in my sobriety is that my mom- she is some sort of alcoholic, to be determined, I guess, but she had a liver transplant when I was sober and I got to show up for her, and that was just really hard.
Ever wondered what it takes to stay sober for nearly two decades? In this episode of Sober Cast, you'll hear from Lyla and Joel, two individuals who have walked the path of recovery and come out stronger. Lyla, who has been sober for almost 10 years, kicks things off by sharing her journey. She talks about how alcohol once dominated her life and how AA helped her find a new way to live.
One touching part of her story involves supporting her mother through a liver transplant, something she could only do because of her sobriety. Next up is Joel, who has been sober for 18 years. His tale is both humorous and heartfelt. Imagine wearing a geodesic dome with spider legs while drunk! But beyond the funny anecdotes, Joel dives deep into the importance of honesty and community in recovery.
He stresses avoiding putting people on pedestals in AA and the dangers of becoming complacent. Both speakers highlight the power of staying connected, shedding secrets, and making amends. This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone on their own recovery journey or supporting someone who is. Whether you're new to sobriety or have been on this path for years, Lyla and Joel's stories offer valuable insights and a sense of hope.
Their experiences remind us that recovery is not just about quitting alcohol; it's about building a meaningful life filled with honesty, connection, and continuous growth.
