This week I had the opportunity to sit down with author and news anchor, Courtney Friel. Courtney has been sober for 12 years after battling for years with her alcohol and substance abuse addictions. She courageously shares her journey with us to help others overcome out loud too. In Courtney's book, Tonight at 10: Kicking Booze and Breaking News, she gives her tell-all account of everything from paying off cops in Mexico after a cocaine bust to sober sexcapades to, ultimately, adventures in holistic healing to achieve deep inner peace. At every detour along the way, her sobering story stays packed with irreverent humor and hard-won optimism. What emerges is a front-line report on living life to the fullest, #KeepingItFriel and celebrating your inner party girl - even in sobriety. Courtney also hosted the podcast, Keepin' It Friel: Conversations on Recovery, where she has candid conversations with celebrities and media personalities about their recovery from addiction. Courtney hopes to inspire others struggling with addictions and show that recovery is possible, and that life can still be fun and rewarding without drugs or alcohol.
