SIM Ep 404 Chops 173: Bryony Gordon’s Glorious Rock Bottom

Glorious Rock Bottom is straight-talking journalist and author Bryony Gordon’s candid and compelling sobriety memoir. In this chat with our Jen, Bryony explains what made her realise her drinking was a problem, what it means to be an alcoholic, how she learned to tell the stigma around alcoholism to jog on, expectation vs reality when it comes to AA, why we need to take responsibility for our own actions, and why she decided to share her personal story with the world.
