Episode 475: Charles and Cassie Kelley on the Journey to Sobriety, the Power of Connection, and Combatting Shame
Podcast: That Sounds Fun with Annie F. DownsPublished On: Fri Jun 16 2023
Description: Today is such a special show as we look towards Father's Day weekend. I get to sit down and talk to my friends Charles and Cassie Kelley. You all know Charles from the AMAZING country trio, Lady A. Charles has recently been on a journey to sobriety and he and Cassie were kind enough to share their story. I so appreciate Charles' honesty and transparency and Cassie's strength and generosity in this conversation. Whether Father’s Day brings about a ton of joy for you or it brings up some pain, I hope this conversation gives you a glimpse of what redemption, grace, and healing can do. Be sure to check out Charles' break-up song with alcohol As Far As You Could, it will blow you away! (And FYI we jump into a pretty deep conversation about addiction. This topic may be tender to you, so I wanted you to know before you listened so you could care for yourself well. And, for our #miniBFFs, you may what to listen to this conversation before their little ears do.) If you or someone you love is struggling with addiction, reach out to Alcoholics Anonymous for support. Listen to my conversation with Lady A out on the That Sounds Fun Podcast Tour. . . . .
