From the outside everything looked perfect. Behind the scenes alcohol addiction was taking over and one night it nearly ended everything. In this episode Lauren shares her sobriety story from having her first drink at just 10 years old to years of hiding alcohol addiction behind a life that looked put together. Her drinking escalates over time leading to serious consequences and a life changing moment that forces everything into the open. After quitting drinking and starting her recovery journey things begin to improve. But a legal substance called kratom unexpectedly pulls her back into addiction and nearly costs her everything in just a few months. This episode is an honest look at alcohol addiction relapse and the risks of substances that many people assume are safe.
