Welcome to Episode 18! In this episode I'm talking with Lisa Smith. Lisa is a writer and lawyer in New York City. She is the author of Girl Walks Out of a Bar, her memoir of high-functioning alcoholism, drug addiction, and recovery in the world of New York City corporate law.

How sobriety helps you to show up as the best and most empowered version of yourself How to shift your focus to enjoying events rather than looking forward to drinking Your real friends will support and nurture your recovery How to donate and support Lisa mission to smash the stigma of addiction!  I love you guys, don't freak out! xo
