Surrendering simply means yielding to your next stage in life.
Ever wondered what it truly means to surrender in the battle against addiction? In this episode of Recovery Elevator, host Paul Churchill sits down with Sami, who has been sober since July 21, 2018, to share her compelling journey. Sami's story sheds light on the concept of surrender—not as a sign of defeat, but as a powerful step toward a better life.
For Sami, surrendering meant accepting that controlled drinking was not an option and embracing the profound change of quitting alcohol for good. This episode dives deep into the emotional and practical aspects of seeking help and staying sober. Paul and Sami discuss the pivotal moment when you realize moderation isn't working and the clarity that follows when you finally say, 'I quit'. They also explore the ongoing nature of surrender—how it's a continuous process rather than a one-time event.
Sami opens up about the challenges she faced and the importance of surrounding herself with supportive friends and family. Her journey highlights the transformative power of storytelling and the role it plays in healing and growth. Whether you're struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, Sami's story offers valuable insights and hope.
Tune in to hear about the ups and downs of sobriety, the dangers of trying to control drinking, and the positive changes that come with a booze-free life.
