Episode Details

In this episode, I sit down with Karina Miesner for a raw Q&A covering the most asked questions around addiction, relapse, and sobriety.

We break down real experiences from both sides of recovery including rock bottom moments, near relapses, triggers, relationships, trauma, and what actually works when it comes to staying sober.

Karina opens up about hitting rock bottom in the ICU with liver disease, while we both share the truth about relapse, shame, and how recovery really happens.

If you’re struggling, early in sobriety, or trying to understand addiction, this episode gives you honest, unfiltered answers from people who’ve lived it.

Topics include:

• What rock bottom actually looks like
• Can you get sober without rehab?
• Triggers that almost caused relapse
• Is relapse part of recovery or failure
• Therapy, trauma, and EMDR
• Relationships in early sobriety
• Daily routines that keep us sober
• Letting go of your old identity

This is the conversation people need but rarely hear.
