What started as casual drinking slowly turned into blackouts, toxic relationships, and nights she couldn’t remember—including the moment she woke up covered in sand after passing out on the beach. In this episode of Rise Above with Kevin Lanning, Jessica opens up about the hidden side of alcohol misuse, the hospitality industry’s drinking culture, and how spiritual healing, retreats, and deep self-reflection helped her walk away from alcohol for good. Now over two years sober, Jessica helps others explore sobriety through mocktails, wellness practices, and mindful living. Her story is a powerful reminder that alcoholism doesn’t always look the way people expect—and that real transformation is possible. #sobriety #addictionrecovery #riseabovepodcast #alcoholism #recoveryjourney #mentalhealth #soberlife #selfhealing #mocktails #podcast Learn more about your ad choices.
