A Shot Glass of Recovery

An odd name for a recovery podcast? Absolutely. But if you knew my drinking history, it would make perfect sense. For years, I used alcohol and drugs as a solution—to my thinking, my problems, and honestly, to life itself. Whenever things got uncomfortable, confusing, or required feelings, I reached for a shot glass full of “solution.”

Spoiler alert: when the glasses were empty and the bottles ran dry, that solution had only made everything worse.

I’ve been on this recovery road for a little over 20 years now, and here’s what I’ve learned: the only way I get to keep what I have is by giving it away—preferably without a hangover.

This podcast is a speaker series curated from my home group, AA Solution Seekers. It’s recycled wisdom, borrowed experience, and feedback straight from the rooms of recovery. So if you’re feeling alone, looking for company, or just need a positive message that doesn’t come with bad advice or worse decisions, pull up a chair and listen in.

Thanks for being here, for listening, and for helping me stay sober—one day at a time.

Keep Coming Back!

Lisa

Melanie from Maine is our little sweetie pie at AA Solution Seekers home group. She has all the best acronyms for GOD amongst other AA mysteries. She is super kind and loving.
So glad this Group of Drunks provided Good Orderly Direction to bring us all together and unite us through GUS (Great Universal Spirit).

Mike lives in daily chronic pain. He has a wife in the program he adores, he has a child he would die for. Today he is a changed man because of the 12 steps and 12 traditions of AA and from what I witness, he always strives for improvement.

Ever feel like you just weren't getting AA? That maybe you never would? That you were so new and so confused. Then there was the trust issues! Who were these crazy people telling you to "Let go and Let God" all the time?
 
You are not alone.

Be careful putting those you admire on a pedestal, the higher you elevate a humble human, the greater the fall...sometimes for you both.

A Shot Glass of Recovery

A Shot Glass of Recovery is Lisa’s solo venture after departing from her popular 100, 000 listening audience on 2 Sober Chicks. Her dear sober friend with whom she created a podcast in 2017 suffered a traumatic event and together they decided to end 2 Sober Chicks.  Perhaps,  one day they will podcast together again should they meet on the road to happy destiny once more. One can hope. There is always hope.

’Til then, Lisa has decided to light another candle in the dark world of Alcoholism & Addiction.

One for the Road? We never said, “No!” to that before, so why not take me along on your drive to work, walk in the park, or next road trip?

A Shot Glass of Recovery is a twist on an old solution made new, just like her journey in recovery made her feel whole at last.
