I’m two and a half years sober now, thanks in large part to Gill’s fascinating and inspiring podcast. I listened to multiple episodes every single day for my first month. I still come back to listen when I am dealing with issues and rediscover my core motivation for staying sober. I recommend this podcast to everyone I know who is struggling with addiction and they all love it, too!
