On this Podcast, I had the honour of talking to Laura McKowen author of “We are the luckiest: The Surprising Magic of a Sober Life”. Laura shared her story and insights from her own journey to #recovery and #sobriety and we discussed the #benefitsofsoberlife.

One thing that makes the most sense to her about addiction is that “Addiction is anything you do or continue to do despite the negative consequences”.

Laura went from drinking somewhat problematically at the beginning to very problematically for most of the time she was drinking. Her alcohol problems started in her late teens and went on for almost twenty years when she got sober at the age of 37. Although she did other drugs as well, alcohol was always the first choice for her.
