Ever wondered if recovery can be a bit chaotic? This episode of 'At The CCC' titled 'Sober But Still Messy' dives into the colourful world of queer recovery, where sobriety doesn't always mean everything's neat and tidy. Hosted by Anthony and LouiLou, this podcast is recorded live from The Castro Country Club in San Francisco, offering a safe haven for the LGBTQ community.
The hosts explore the concept of being 'socially messy' – think sending angry voicemails or accidental oversharing on a first date. They candidly discuss how recovery might not fix your social skills overnight, and the unique challenges faced by those in the queer community. With anecdotes that are both humorous and relatable, they address the reality of maintaining sobriety while navigating the complexities of social interactions.
LouiLou shares his experiences of being messy at work, while Anthony reflects on the struggles of balancing personal relationships and sobriety. The podcast also touches on cultural expectations and how they can impact relationships, adding a layer of depth to the conversation. You might find yourself nodding along as they talk about emotional intimacy, connection, and how sometimes the messiness is part of the journey.
Tune in for an honest and engaging conversation that might just make you feel a little less alone in your own messy moments.
