Podcast Host Julie Miller: Building a Life Beyond Alcohol

Welcome back, everyone! Today I sat down with Julie Miller, RCP (Recovery Coach Professional) and co-host of Through the Glass Recovery, for an authentic conversation about the journey through sobriety and self-discovery.

In this discussion, Julie opens up about her personal battle with alcoholism and her transformative path to recovery. We explore how finding genuine connections and embracing vulnerability became cornerstones of her healing process. Julie's story reminds us that recovery isn't just about stopping drinking—it's about discovering who we truly are and learning to love ourselves authentically.
