The One Day At A Time Recovery Podcast
Health & Fitness:Mental Health
Welcome to the podcast! In case you are new here, my name is Arlina Allen and I am the founder of Sober Life School. I have been sober since 4/23/94 (which means I will be celebrating 30 years!) In that time I have been obsessed with self-help, spirituality, psychology, and behavior change.
And let’s not get it twisted, I did not do it alone. In fact, I have had many many helpers along the way including mentors, sponsors, professional therapists and lots of loving friends and family.
As a way to say thank you to them, I try to be as helpful as I can and pass along what was given to me. That’s why I created a free guide for you with all my best tips on how to start your alcohol-free journey. It’s called “How to Quit Drinking: 30 tips for your first 30 days”. In it you will find strategies on how to avoid common mistakes, foods that will reduce cravings, how to talk about it with friends and family, what to do in social situations, and so much more!
So visit soberlifeschool.com, get your free copy and start creating a life you love!
And just a little programming note: I recently lost my podcast editor, so this episode and future episodes will be published in the raw and unedited format. I appreciate your patience and continued support!
Today I’ll be joined by Justin B. Long. He is an author, business owner of a successful veterinary practice, and author of The Righteous Rage of a Ten-Year-Old Boy. He shares the traumatic events in early childhood that formed his negative self-image, his journey through addiction, and the process of healing that has led to finding peace.
You know, after hearing Justin’s story, I was reminded of just how painful childhood can be for some people. When I hear these stories, I often feel amazed at how they survive, and the truth is, some people don’t. In fact, Justin could have very easily become another statistic - but he didn’t. He survived. And not only did he survive, but he is thriving today!
That is the story of hope.
So without further delay, please enjoy this episode with Justin.
