Addiction, Honesty, and the Stories That Set Us Free with Laura Cathcart Robbins
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week, our guest is someone whose honesty is transforming how we talk about recovery, shame, and self-acceptance.
Laura Cathcart Robbins is the best-selling author of Stash: My Life in Hiding, a memoir about her journey through addiction to alcohol and Ambien, and the courage it took to tell the truth about it. She’s also the host of The Only One in the Room podcast, where she’s shared stories of other voices who’ve felt unseen or alone in their experiences.
In our conversation, Laura and I talk about how storytelling becomes a vehicle for recovery, what self-evolution actually looks like, and why truth-telling can be one of the most healing acts of all.
If you’ve ever felt like you had to keep it together or play a part just to be loved, this episode is for you. Laura’s story is a reminder that freedom begins where hiding ends, and that recovery, in all its forms, starts with radical self-honesty.
