EP 599: Naked Life Story - Soraya Odishoo09 Jun 202300:55:11
Soraya struggled to feel accepted and authentic her entire life. Early on she realized just how judgmental the world could be and how difficult it was to fit the mold created by others. And there were so many things that made her stand out - her mixed race, her artistry, and her sexual orientation. When her parents moved across the country leaving her feeling alone and left behind in New York City, she found solace and escape in alcohol and drugs. Rehab and AA brought her peace and comfort for a time but she eventually found herself outgrowing AA and the beliefs around it. She joins Annie Grace to discuss her journey including the struggle to feel authentic, heard, and valued as a member of the LGTBQIA++ community, what it was like getting sober in AA and why she doesn’t have negative feelings around it, what happens when you outgrow AA, and how learning to trust has been the greatest gift.

Darcy realized early on in life that the best way to get what she wanted and keep everyone happy was being secretive.

EP 591: Naked Life Story - Thomas M.12 May 202300:28:16
Thomas grew up in the Midwest where he found alcohol to be ever present in his life. It was always around and it was just what people did to relax, let loose, socialize, and have fun.

It wasn’t until everything in his life began to fall apart that he realized something needed to change.

EP 589: Naked Life Story - Meredith05 May 202300:52:00
Meredith never thought she’d be the person fighting with alcohol and the need to drink. Not a single drink passed through her lips in high school but the wheels came off in college. Once she started drinking nothing could make her stop - not a career, cancer, children, or a global pandemic. Drinking became second nature. Amazingly it was a small and somewhat insignificant fight with her husband that made her realize she wanted to stop fighting with alcohol. Annie Grace and Meredith get into conversations around the lie of drinking in order to feel free, how rock bottom can be something others would consider small, how alcohol can manipulate even the shrewdest and most independent people, how to start small with taking control and so much more.

EP 587: Naked Life Story - Rachael L.28 Apr 202300:42:25
For Rachael, just like for many of us, alcohol was always there.

It took the realization that a six-month break from alcohol did nothing to change her desire for it for Rachael to realize that she needed a dynamic and drastic shift in her drinking. Rachael and Annie discuss how to get away from alcohol once and for all, how insidiously alcohol takes over your life, why she enjoys things more now and creates more meaningful connections, and why she was driven to give back and help others.
