In our very first "Behind the Addiction" interview, we sit down with Sara as she discusses her struggles with alcoholism as we dive into who she was during addiction and who she is today. Be sure to congratulate Sara for 11 years sober in the comments or otherwise just leave a message for her. We will be relaying any positive and encouraging comments to her. ► Subscribe ◀ https://www.youtube.com/BehindTheAddiction?sub_confirmation=1 ► Share Your Story ◀ We believe your story is just as important as anyone elses, and would love to hear it!
