The Recovery Toolkit Podcast - Episode Seven: Abstinence isn't Recovery

In this episode Richie talks to Ria, who is 4 years in recovery from alcoholism. In recovery, Ria moved from a victim mentality and self pity to take responsibility for herself and to get back to the things in life that she enjoys.
Physical activity is a big part of her recovery and she has completed several marathons. She has also got a stable job and is present in her daughter's life.
Ria talks about how the one big thing she is aware of now is the ability to admit when she is wrong - but she is also surrounded by people who can call her out when needed. She also has some great coping strategies that help her manage.
Ria is inspiring in so many ways and this conversation sums up what is possible for anyone who wants it.
