Tara's Journey: From Perfectionism and Pain to AA Fellowship

May 4, 2026 • 35min 25s

Episode description

Tara shares how early anxiety, perfectionist drives, and harmful coping habits led her to alcoholism, and how a welcoming hug at a detox center sparked her sobriety in 1994. She reflects on the contrast between her outward ‘good girl’ image and inner discomfort, expressing deep gratitude for AA, her sponsor, and the community that kept her sober.
