About I Have 12 Questions Podcast - Conversations About the Sober Life

A podcast about Trudging the Road to Happy Freaking Destiny! Interviews and random soliloquies where we laugh, cry, complain, explore, and learn. All are welcome, No exceptions. Including those who are not in recovery but perhaps know or love someone with addiction issues or just want to learn more. Along with experts and practitioners who help people work through addictions and behaviors they want to change. These conversations will span limitless topics and though will be through the lens of sobriety, are still universally human. Love, loss. grief, excitement, parenting, outside issues, purpose, God stuff, etc. In the words of the great Ted Lasso (by way of Walt Whitman), ”I want to be curious, not judgmental.” So, we’ll be talking to people who have found sobriety, recovery, perspective shifts regardless of their path. Radical acceptance and inclusivity of ourselves and everyone else. Happy trudging!

S4EP1: Amy Moore speaks on her own recovery, mental health and how she became an interventionist with a gift!

Hey sober family and our entire listener community! Thanks as always for being here to share and to receive our recovery stories. It means a lot.  Our next guest was referred to me by our last guest, actually a friend named Julie out of Denver.  So, we do not know each other which I think always opens the conversation to a different flavor.  She’s an interventionist, which alone is wild to me to think about.  You can find her online at https://adrunkwhisperer.com/ [https://adrunkwhisperer.com/] to learn more about her personally as well as the services she offers.  There’s a great video about the process on her site which I found very informative, and she shares her own personal story by way of her speaker tape which can be accessed there as well.  She’s got a ton of successes and credentials under her belt and she herself is also in recovery for over 25 years! * Started private practice in 2015                     * Keith Bradley's Intervention workshop in the Love First model also using a Spiritual Perspective 2016 * Spends much of her free time mentoring women in recovery in all walks of life * Regularly taught relapse prevention at Excelsior girls’ facility for 13–19-year-old adolescents prior to the school closure in 2017 * Inspirational and motivational speaker worldwide * Peer Coach training through PCA and CCAR. * NCPRSS National Certified Peer Recovery Support Specialist through NAADAC * NCIP Nationally Certified Intervention Professional  Her episode will be available on Valentine’s Day wherever you get your podcasts and/or YouTube.

S3EP12: Alaska Barnes on Her Experiences in Life, Love, Yoga, Recovery & Shared Universal Lessons

I can’t think of a more joyful way to wrap up Season 3 and the year 2024 than with this amazing woman.  Our guest this episode is someone I adore for many reasons.  I met her as the Yoga teacher at my studio and was immediately drawn to her energy.  To be fair I don’t know a whole lot about her outside of her being my favorite yoga teacher, but that’s why we’re here today to hear about her recovery story and learn new things together.  Her name is Alaska Barnes and she has a lot of wisdom, love and laid-back energy to share.     Her episode will be available wherever you get your podcasts and/or YouTube.

S3EP11: Julie M. Talks Recovery, Family, Scuba Diving, Travel, Crafts, all the things!

Hey sober family and our entire listener community. Our next guest is someone I met when I lived in Denver.  She’s one of those women who you just know isn’t messing around...she’s serious about recovery and helping other women.  Period.  My kinda people.  I nicknamed her Bling soon after meeting her because she’s always sparkling with jewels and bedazzles but also her spirit is full of light and the kind of joy you can't fake.  She’s a tough love type and it comes from a place of knowing how deadly addiction can be for some of us.  She always said work this program like your life depends on….because it does.  I learned so much from her and in a new city only a couple of years into recovery at the time she made me feel safe and like I had a friend in my new sober community in Colorado.  She’s a joy and I can’t wait to share her with y’all! Her episode is available December 20, 2024 wherever you get your podcasts and/or YouTube. Thanks for your support as always!

S3 EP10 – Jen S. on Being Present, Vulnerable, Getting Comfortable with her Real Self & Helping Others

Hey sober family and our entire listener community. Our next guest is someone I met when I lived in Denver.  She’s one of the funniest and most unassuming people ever.  I nicknamed her Handler soon after being around her because she’s so funny and doesn’t even try to be.  She’s sober, a Mom, a wife, a woman just doing the deal.  One of my favorite things about her is her honesty.  I detest fake people and so when I meet someone who is just real it makes me feel at ease.  Not to mention our obsessive love of "Gangsta Rap" and filthy lyrics bonds us forever. Her episode is available November 15, 2024 wherever you get your podcasts and/or YouTube. Thanks for your support as always!

S3 EP9 – Anna Donaghey of The Big Drink Rethink Podcast, Former Ad Exec Turned Alcohol Mindset Coach

Hey sober family and our entire listener community. Today’s guest is someone I don’t know personally but do follow and learn from.  Anna is a Coach who helps others reframe their mindset around drinking.  For 20 years, she drank daily, thinking nothing of finishing a bottle of wine in the evening. At the time, she believed the alcohol was helping her cope with the stresses of everyday life, but her drinking left her feeling exhausted, ashamed and unhappy.  She said “I just knew I couldn't carry on. I knew I was addicted but I didn't know what to do about it, and I felt an enormous amount of shame.” One night, during one of the daily panic attacks she would experience because of her drinking, she typed ‘Am I an alcoholic?’ into Google and the results included a book called This Naked Mind by Annie Grace. Reading the book, which focuses on finding freedom through alcohol control rather than total sobriety, was a lightbulb moment for Anna. By spending time understanding WHY she was drinking, she was eventually able to give up alcohol completely and her journey inspired her to become an alcohol mindset coach. The 53-year-old from Gloucestershire has now launched her own podcast called The Big Drink Rethink to get people talking openly and honestly about alcohol.  Please check her offerings out at https://www.thebeliefscoach.com/ [https://www.thebeliefscoach.com/] I learned SO much from this conversation and will be using her guidance moving forward in my day to day.  One such nugget was it’s not about asking how “bad” is my relationship with alcohol but instead is my life as good as it could be right now given the nature of that relationship?  This is an evolved view to me.  Rock bottom isn’t the price of admission like some people believe.  It’s more about what limitations could it be putting on my potential or happiness and let’s get into the why behind why it’s that way.  Her episode is available October 18, 2024 wherever you get your podcasts and/or YouTube.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
