This week on Sober Stories, we had the opportunity to interview Amanda E. White of the popular @therapyforwomen Instagram account. (S01/E001) Amanda is a licensed therapist, the founder of Therapy for Women Center in Philadelphia, and the author of “Not Drinking Tonight, A Guide to Creating a Sober Life You Love.” In our conversation with Amanda, we talked about everything from how seeking therapy for her eating disordered led her to sobriety, to what the mental health field is getting wrong about Alcohol Use Disorder, to how Amanda cares for herself and her sobriety while keep all of the plates spinning.
When we see ourselves in others' stories, and when we share our own stories, we are able to connect and heal on a deep, juicy level. We are the only multimedia platform telling the stories of folks all across the "sober" spectrum, with storytelling of hope, honesty, inspiration, and at least a fewwww sparkling water jokes.
