Sobertown Podcast

Rai, Raul and Viv Sober_I_Thrive As we discuss “getting sober” in a Multi Cultural Diverse Community and how breaking our limiting beliefs within our cultural barriers of Addiction ❤️‍🩹 Recovery, could have stopped us from getting sober.  The making of “Sobersquad” as told by Raulito, who is one of the founding fathers and the Terrible 😢 Anxiety that plagued Rai to join the one and only Zoom at the time and why it took me so long to integrate myself on Zoom and my own personal cultural biases.  If you FEAR joining zooms this podcast is for YOU, we shared with so much vulnerability in hopes to reach out to those of you that feel alone, scared 😱 and FEAR WHAT OTHERS    Rai was born in Guam where both her parents were heavy drinkers, then moving stateside, she confesses that she has felt alone most of her life, but through sobriety she has grown into herself, finding her voice within her sober found family, She now strives to be as open and present as possible so that others may not feel as alone as she once did and is breaking the generational cycle of alcoholism within her own family with her son, Currently at age thirty she has 20 months of sobriety and hopes one day to become a published author.   My name is Raul aka Lil Raulito and I’m humbled by my strides in recovery.  I didn’t think I would ever be able to break away from my addiction yet here I sit a couple of weeks from hitting the 1000 day mark.  The reason I remain connected with our tribe is to give back what was freely given to me.  I want to be a representative of my Higher Power and share my message of strength and hope.  I can’t do this alone and I stay connected with the fellowship to stay sober.  Sometimes the fellowship lifts me up and at other times I’m part of helping others. I’m blessed to have found community and I’m grateful to be part of this community.   Other Sober Resources: I Am Sober App Getting Sober ...Again Boom Rethink The Drink Recovery Movie Meet-Ups No Sippy No Slippy.

Host: Viv aka Sober_iThrive Guest: Ashlee aka AshlsHere   About our Guest: Ashlee aka AshIsHere Ashlee's childhood and early twenties were an overall happy time that set a solid foundation for adulthood. She had a small taste of life's unpredictability in those formative years but was able to persevere with the support of her loved ones. Once she graduated college and began working full-time as a special education teacher, her drinking increased as all the social activities she was engaging in involved alcohol. A couple of life-altering events would send her into a tailspin in her late twenties. Although Ashlee had a wonderful upbringing, she lacked the social-emotional skills required to navigate through these stressful scenarios. Not knowing where to turn, her drinking habits became increasingly problematic. Ashlee walks you through how dark and lonely her life became and what measures she took to regain ownership of her life and start following her bliss. She also shares pieces of her experience having a partner who is also in recovery and how she and her husband have found success in their own individual journeys while simultaneously supporting each other.   Other Sober Resources: I Am Sober App Getting Sober ...Again Boom Rethink The Drink Recovery Movie Meet-Ups No Sippy No Slippy.

Alternatives to drinking Positive Recovery with Corinna  When we think about quitting drinking we often worry about what we are going to do with “all that time”. When we get sober, we wonder how we ever had time to drink! We pick up lost activities, connect with others and find new hobbies that we didn’t even know we would enjoy.

Mary AKA HummingbirdsAppetite tells her Story to Viv AKA "Sober I Thrive" Mary AKA HummingbirdsAppetite tells the story of her journey from addiction to recovery. Suffering from childhood panic attacks and mental compulsions due to OCD led Mary to discovering self harm, alcohol, and drugs as coping mechanisms at a young age. She learned to put on a high functioning mask by earning good grades and maintaining the status quo. She has endured multiple tragedies throughout her life including the death of her parents, her beloved sister as well as friends and loved ones which pushed her further into her addictions.  After seeing how the negative behaviors that she was exhibiting were manifesting in her young daughter, Mary began to understand the error of her ways. She fought through her grief, guilt and shame to educate herself about addiction and build a sobriety toolbox for herself to end the cycle of addiction in her family. This research brought her to IAS where she has crafted her own recovery program and, through inspiration from Sobertown, has become committed to giving back to the community with her graphic design expertise.   Mary has become a huge part of the Sobertown village and is helping us create more resources on the back end of the Sobertownpodcast.com website. Mary also gives back helping other Sober communities other than Sobertown.  Thank you Mary for all you're dong for all of us!! Thank you for sharing your amazing journey and being so vulnerable!! You're absolutely an amazing Sober Warrior!! BOOOOOM!!   Other Sober Resources: I Am Sober App Getting Sober ...Again Boom Rethink The Drink Recovery Movie Meet-Ups No Sippy No Slippy.
