Confident Sober Women
How Her "Source" Eased The Overwhelm Of Getting Sober W/Jewels
Early childhood trauma taught Jewels to run from danger and the tornados of life. She dropped out of high school with childlike coping skills, found alcohol, drugs and people to survive. She never quit though.
Jewels talks about the delusions of her perceptions in early sobriety being the pivotal point in her spiritual journey with “source”. She got sober using the twelve steps, sponsorship and a higher power. We dive deep into spirituality what it means to each of us and how do we manage that when bad things happen.
Jewels is honest, funny and a vulnerable story teller. And she is a body builder. Her story is compelling and the life she has created in recovery inspiring for all.
Jewels is a woman in long term sobriety, the author of the autobiography, The Making Of A Woman, and her blog Empower. You can find both on her website www.themakingofawoman.com and social media. She loves connecting with other sober women.
Jewels is also a member of the Confident Sober Women Facebook group so you can reach out to her there as well. If you aren't a member come on over and join other sober women striving to build confidence and emotional sobriety beyond recovery.
