United Kingdom7 months ago - Emotional Sobriety
I’m so grateful I found this podcast when looking for guidance about an alcoholic friend also diagnosed late in life as on the autism spectrum. Then as I continued listening I found such similar ways of thinking about my own sobriety, and, most recently, your episode on dealing with difficult people. Humbling and eye opening. It’s really helped me see where I continue to play a role. Thank you!
