🎙️ Episode 1: How I Got Here

Welcome to Beyond the Bottle: Recovery Reflections—a space for raw truth, deep healing, and the stories we carry.

In this first episode, I share my personal journey through addiction, mental health struggles, and the moment everything changed. From a .386 blood alcohol level to a life rebuilt with intention and grace, this is the story behind the mic.

Whether you’re navigating recovery yourself, loving someone who is, or simply craving honest conversation—you belong here.

✨ Expect honesty, tenderness, and a reminder that your story isn’t over.

Trigger warning: This episode includes discussion of suicide and substance abuse.

If you or someone you know is struggling, you are not alone. Please seek help.
