Wholly Sober: How I Stopped Thinking About Drinking and Started Loving My Life

by Teresa Rodden

Teresa Rodden experienced her first hangover at age 5. She was the latest in a lineage of women that lived understanding two Life is painful and alcohol will numb that pain. This is what she believed, too—as she navigated teen pregnancy, abusive relationships, staggering debt and spiritual crisis. This is her powerful story of clearing the debris left behind after years of pain and poor choices and her reconnection with her God-given dreams, talents, and purpose. Rodden describes how she journeyed beyond commonly-held beliefs about sobriety and 12-step recovery into a life she calls “wholly sober”— a life in which she now helps other women live joyfully, purposefully, and free from alcohol abuse. There is strong language used for the purpose of maintaining authenticity of character.

Very inspiring and worth the read

Reading about Teresa's past and present put a lot of things into perspective and helped me understand that she is an amazingly strong and independent beautiful woman. I would recommend this book for all women to read whether her they are struggling with some sort of addiction or not. I believe it is worth it.
