from SOBRIETY CHECKPOINT - Sober Living, Sobriety, Addiction Recovery, Emotional Sobriety, Alcohol Free · host Felicia Hermle, MSW | Sober Therapist, Emotional Sobriety Coach

Hey there, sobriety warriors! In this episode, I take a unique approach by revisiting the early days of my recovery journey and sharing how I turned to literature, including the big book and the Bible, for guidance. I discuss the transformative power of the twelve steps and the profound impact they've had on my life, as well as the concept of the "gift of desperation" and its role in my ongoing recovery. As my sobriety anniversary approaches, I reflect on the challenges and triumphs of the past 13 years, including the profound peace and gratitude that sobriety has brought me. Join me as I express my immense gratitude for the fellowship, relationships, and inner freedom that have enriched my sober lifestyle. Plus, get ready for upcoming episodes featuring impactful guest interviews and insightful discussions on mental health, spirituality, and navigating parenthood while staying sober. Thank you for being part of this incredible journey, and remember, we are stronger than we think we are. Keep fighting and showing your strength. . . . . **It’s time for that desperately sought after solo Target run.. Grab your keys and let’s go for a drive...
