Chip Somers on Healing From Childhood Sexual Abuse and Addiction

Since we’re at the beginning of November, which is known as “Gratitude Month” I’m offering a free 30 day self love challenge in the One day at a time private women’s group. It is a daily post with simple suggestions like spend 5 minutes journaling, List 3 people who love you or take a hot bubble bath. I also like to share books, meditations and all kinds of recovery resources I find on the interwebs. So if you’re a woman and you’d like to join me, just search for the one day at a time private women’s group and I’ll see you there!

 

You are going to love my guest today. Chip Somers was described by Russell Brand in his book 'Recovery' as someone who has taught him that it was OK to talk about my feelings. That "he demonstrated that it was safe to be vulnerable and he was able to validate ideas I had about how to change my habits and suggest better ones."

 

He is the co-host of the “Soberful” podcast along with the beautiful and profoundly wise, Veronica Valle.

 

Chip has been sober for 39 years and today he shares his story of childhood sexual abuse, alcoholism, and drug addiction as well as his time in prison. Of course we talk about what he did to heal his trauma and what life is like now.

 

I’m really excited to share this conversation with you, so without further delay, please enjoy this episode with Chip and let me know what you think!
