  • A Lifeline When I Needed It Most

    I’ve been listening to this podcast since the beginning of my sobriety journey, and I can honestly say it has been a lifeline for me. I’ve been sober since August 11, 2021, and during some of my hardest moments, this podcast has been a steady source of strength, clarity, and hope.

    What I love most is how real and honest everything is. There’s no pretending, no sugarcoating just truth, healing, and encouragement.

    When my husband relapsed, I felt overwhelmed, heartbroken, and unsure of how to n... more

  • Jeanine is a FRAUD

    Jeanine is part of a grift called Sober Girls Group Chat. This group of women includes influencer Abbey Fickley. Abbey has built a platform on lies, she is not sober and preys on the recovery community She has also sexually exploited her child to pedos for views/money. Jeanine is aware and completely complicit in this. Zero integrity

  • I love Jeanine ❤️

    Listening to Jeanine gives me all the feels. She brings addiction and recovery to a light that allows us to laugh at our past lives while gaining insight to recovery and beyond. She keeps me laughing, crying and saving her witty antidotes, week after week. She is a gem. A beautiful soul sharing experiences and stories that will remind the addict that there is life after addiction. One of my most favourite podcasts. I love Jeanine ❤️
