Veronica Valli and I Discuss The Freedom of Sobriety and…

Her book, Soberful: Uncover a Sustainable, Fulfilling Life Free of Alcohol
That alcoholism is just a symptom of a deeper malaise
Her history with drugs and alcohol and how she got sober
The experience she had with drug-induced psychosis
Believing she had a very rare problem when everyone else was fine
How and when she discovered that she wasn’t alone in how she felt
Emotional unmanageability vs. emotional mastery
That behavior is the truest manifestation of how someone feels – we behave how we feel
The way our culture has normalized abnormal drinking

When you’re spending most of your time arguing with yourself about whether or not you have a problem with drinking, you’re missing out on the real and good stuff of life, including your own growth and discovery
Toxic positivity
Feeling comfortable in our own skin and having appropriate emotional responses to events
Emotional sobriety
The value of consistently having a framework in life
What to do if sobriety meetings feel overwhelming
