EP 285: Runningandyoga’s Recovery story

Runningandyoga sat down with Viv to tell her amazing Recovery Story!   Runningandyoga grew up in East Germany with an understanding that she would never be able to travel the world, choose her professional career, or speak her thoughts freely. Yet, in November of 1989, when she was 12 years old, everything changed over night. The Berlin Wall came down and with that her country dissolved. Simultaneously her parents got divorced, she faced unwanted changes of her body, (puberty), and in school nobody knew what to teach and who should teach it. Longing for stability in her life, she started to control food and her weight. Later she discovered alcohol as a way to cope with anxiety, depression, and everything else. After failed attempts to moderate her alcohol consumption, she fearfully and begrudgingly tried sobriety in January 2022. She is forever grateful that she found community and support in the I Am Sober online community.   Viv, aka Sober_iThrive, is a Certified Addictions Recovery Coach My Sober Recovery Story #252  If you have any questions or You would like to book a FREE 30-minute consultation with me, you can visit my website https://www.soberithrive.org I’m Certified in Addiction Recovery Coaching and Life Coaching:    • Life Coaching Essentials, Work/Life Balance  • Co-creating a New Sober Lifestyle  • Addiction(s) Recovery  • Neuroscience of Brain Function & Joyful Recovery  • Roots of Addiction(s)  • Alcohol/Drugs and their Effects  • Right Thinking in Recovery  • Family Issues in Recovery     And so much more…   My communities are:   • Sobertownpodcast.com   • I Am Sober Community (IAS) - @Sober_iThrive  • Sobertown Facebook Group   • “Valiants We Thrive” – Sober Women Telegram Group  • Instagram: @Sober_i_Thrive  www.soberithrive.org (https://www.soberithrive.org/) Certified and Licensed Addiction and Recovery Professional Online Sober Coaching for all of your addiction and recovery needs by a Internationally Certified and Licensed Sober Coach & Life Coach   Other Sober Resources: I Am Sober App Getting Sober ...Again Boom Rethink The Drink Recovery Movie Meet-Ups No Sippy No Slippy.
