The One Day At A Time Recovery Podcast

Hi Friend,   Thank you for downloading the podcast, my name is Arlina, and I’ll be your host.   In case we haven’t met yet, I am a certified Recovery Coach and Hypnotist. I help people get sober, stay sober and go deeper through scientifically proven tools and spiritual practices.   I have been practicing abstinence from drugs and alcohol since 4/23/94 and I’ve seen recovery grow and evolve over the years with a lot of different options. I encourage you to explore it all and find what works for you.    Today my guest is Jean McCarthy, the podcast host of The Bubble Hour, with over 4 million downloads! She is also the author of the award winning blog “Unpickled”, and author of the Unpickled book series. Today we are talking about her latest book, Unpickled - Prepare to be alcohol free. Insights and tips to ease the transition.   Jean is so talented and has such a huge heart. The book is very thoughtful, super practical and I know it will help many many people on their alcohol-free journey.   Before we jump in, I want to ask you, do you struggle with stubborn issues like self-confidence, weight loss, smoking or chronic pain? If you do, then you might want to consider hypnosis. Hypnosis has been around since the 18th century, and institutions like Stanford University School of Medicine, and the  These issues are rooted in the subconscious mind and hypnosis is how you can reframe and rewire your brain, so that you can feel more confident, lose weight, quit smoking and manage pain without drugs. Not sure if you can be hypnotized? There is actually a eye test to determine how hypnotizable you are. If you’re curious, just visit soberlifeschool.com and book a free consultation to see if hypnosis is right for you.    So that’s it for the intro. Please enjoy this episode with Jean!

Hello Loves, Thank you for downloading the podcast, my name is Arlina, and I’ll be your host. In case we haven’t met yet, I am a certified Recovery Coach and Hypnotist. I help people get sober, stay sober and go deeper through scientifically proven tools and spiritual practices. I have been practicing abstinence from drugs and alcohol myself since 4/23/94 and I’ve seen recovery grow and evolve over the years with a lot of different options. I encourage you to explore it all and find what works for you.  Today’s guest is Tiffany North, my new soul sister! I really loved this conversation with her! She's an RN, Certified Intuitive Eating Professional, and creator of the Food Attachment Model ™, a genius combination of attachment style theory and intuitive eating. If you have food issues, and who doesn’t, you’re going to love this one! Tiffany helps people with disordered eating finally find freedom, balance, and satisfaction. She personally struggled with disordered eating and found a path to peace. It was so transformational that she dedicated her work to helping others do the same. Tiffany has also been alcohol and substance free since 1998 and after our conversation, it is clear that she walks the talk, which I personally have a lot of respect for.  Before we jump in, I have one small request that could make a huge difference in someone’s life, and that is to share this podcast with all of your friends in recovery. We don’t always know what’s going on with people and a lot of us isolate when we’re in pain. It’s a trauma response that comes from when we were little, suffering, and nobody met our needs for emotional security. And for those of us suffering from alcohol and drug issues, isolation is a hell like no other. So please, remember to reach out to your friends in recovery, and if you hear something that hits you in one of the podcast episodes, please share it. It’s an easy way to connect and you never know who you might be helping. So without further adu, please enjoy this episode with Tiffany. Subscribe So You Don’t Miss New Episodes!

Before I tell you about today’s guest, Did you know I run a 30 day sobriety bootcamp called Sobriety Reset?  Cuz I do! If you’re sober curious and want to try your first 30 days, or maybe you’ve relapsed and you’d like a little extra support tackling the typical hurdles of early recovery, then check it out at SobrietyReset.com.    It’s an online course with a private support group that is designed using proven tools and strategies to put you in the right mindset for success.    For your convenience there’s an FAQ page on website, or you can simply reach out to me at arlina@soberlifeschool.com and I’ll respond within 24 hours.   Okay, so. Today my guest is Albert Flynn DeSilver, author, poet and writing coach for “The Mindful Authors Accelerator”.    Albert has a cool story and I really appreciated his transparency in talking about the violence he experienced as a young child, the highs and lows of his drinking and using, but also the unique path he had to recovery.    He said something I’ll never forget in the interview “Tell the story to let go of the story”. I feel like that really captures the essence of why we do so much journaling and sharing in recovery programs. That was definitely the case for me and countless others I’ve talked to. He now dedicates a lot of time into helping aspiring writers to tell their stories in book format. If you’ve been thinking about writing a book, you’ll really appreciate this one. It’s still a cool story even if you aren’t.    So without further adu, please enjoy this episode with Albert.
