The Entrepreneur Lights Up in Recovery: Louise's Story

In this Episode:

Now sober. Now what? For some, the next step in recovery is to completely rebuild their lives. That’s exactly what Louise did when she got married, had a baby, bought a house, and started a business.

In this episode, Louise tells Vince and Jeanna about her relapses, why she struggled to stay sober, recovering from sexual abuse, and her new business making custom candles.

Episode Highlights:

• Multiple relapses and what went wrong each time.
• Balancing co-dependence and independence to achieve interdependence.
• The hesitation that came from Vince’s speaking at “The Family Afterward”.
• Benefits of talking about sexual abuse.
• Louise’s fingerprint on “Simply Sober Self-Care” and how she practices self-care.
• Turning candle-making for self-care into an adventure in entrepreneurship.
