41. Not Drinking for Health Reasons VS. Not Drinking to Stay Alive—There's a Big Difference

Sobriety looks different for everyone, but what happens when the choice isn’t just about health—it’s about survival?

In this episode, I’m breaking down the difference between choosing sobriety for wellness versus needing it because of alcoholism. I’ll share my own journey, including the struggles, the realizations, and the surprising freedom that came with accepting the label of "alcoholic." We’ll talk about the power of acceptance, the role of spiritual programs, and why admitting the truth—hard as it may be—can be the key to real healing. If you’ve ever wondered where you stand or how to support someone on this path, this one’s for you. Let’s dive in. 🎧✨
