The Soberful Life with Veronica Valli
This week on the Resilience Unravelled podcast, Dr Russell Thackeray talks to Veronica Valli who struggled with alcoholism through most of her twenties.
A binge drinker, she was aware for some time that something was wrong but was unable to define what it was however a chance meeting led to her finally getting help and turning her life around. At the height of her addiction, Veronica was unable to go to work without the aid of a drink and her life and confidence were in tatters. She got sober in 2000 at the age of twenty-seven and now uses this experience to help and inspire others. In this podcast:
- Veronica talks about the signs that someone might be struggling with alcohol
- How alcohol affects the genders differently
- The importance of connection and community.
