S2 E16 - Post Hospital Catch Up!

Julianne shares her experience of being in the hospital for internal bleeding, blood transfusions, endoscopies and more. She shares about the journey of noticing patterns in her body and being aware of what is going on in her body because during active addiction you're not very aware of these things while in active addiction. Donna shares her struggles with the perception of her mother and how she viewed her as a young woman. She talks about her severe codependency and how our mother's day plans were sidelined by COVID and her codependent behavior. Gratitude is a big part of this episode. The girls talk about the ways in which they find gratitude in their daily life. Of course, discussion about disordered eating is always mentioned when you get these two together. They talk about losing excitement about sobriety and realizing they need to amp up their programs again. They talk about going to meetings and what that means for each of them. They talk about community and how you have to "stay connected, to be protected" and all of those AA and NA platitudes that are SO true! Donna talks about being triggered by alcohol even though it's not even her drug of choice and so much more!
