Welcome Back! In 2017, Kelley Kitley courageously published her autobiography 'MY self.' 'MY self' is described as a near-mythical Phoenix rising tale of triumph against easily considered insurmountable odds, such as an eating disorder, sexual assault, and alcohol abuse that plunged her deeper into the abyss. Far from another crash-and-burn autobiography of grief, 'MY self' lays bare the vulnerability and isolation unique to Kitley and women while revealing the transformation of loss into a surplus of riches beyond even the author's wildest imagination.Kelley's book led to the production of their film 'Gray Area,' where Ryan Kitley played himself in this raw and powerful movie. Kelley and Ryan share how they navigated people's reactions to being public about their journey. We discuss the journey of alcohol abuse and recovery, highlighting the different viewpoints experienced by each person within a couple going through this together. This episode reminds us of our humanity; we can watch the same movie, feel different feelings, and experience diverse focal points. The truth is that each perspective is accurate.#embracefamilyrecovery #podcast #KelleyKitley #MYself #RyanKitley #GrayArea #author #actor #movieproducer #recovery #addiction #coupleinrecovery #addictionrecovery #addictionawareness #addictiontreatment #addictions #familyrecovery #familyrecoverycoach #familyrecoverycoaching #familyaddiction #familyaddictionrecovery #recoverysupport #recoverysupportgroup #recoverysupportservicesSupport the showClick here to grab your copy of Healthy Strategies for Family Members to Cope and Even Thrive Through Addiction and receive my weekly newsletter.

"MOMMY NEEDS WINE!", "Mommy Juice", "It Takes a Village, and a Vineyard", "Time to Wine Down". The amount of t-shirts, mugs, wine glasses, and other memorabilia may seem clever and cute at first. But is it? Normally I'm not a party pooper and I'm far from a "Karen", but lately this movement of mommies coping with booze is really affecting me. You probably listened to my solo episode surrounding this topic (check out EP24 if you missed it!), but today I have an expert, a friend, and someone who has actually experienced the slippery and dangerous slope of alcohol and motherhood. In today's episode we chat with Shelley DeJongh (Licensed Professional Counselor with SO many credentials!) about why drinking to cope is normalized, the stress that mothers are under, and the lack of coping skill knowledge we have. She touches on the definition of a "Wine Mom" (yes it's actually a "thing" and The Atlantic has an actual article on it https://www.theatlantic.com/family/archive/2020/05/wine-moms-explained/612001/ ), how we know if we have entered the danger zone with drinking, how to adjust to changes in your drinking without feeling you've lost your identity, along with so many more ways we can learn about our drinking patterns and if we need to make changes. I did. The goal here is not to condemn anyone for drinking. We are simply here sharing stories, experiences and tools that helped us both have a healthier relationship with alcohol. This is a no judgement zone - EVER! We also hear Shelley's story behind her choice for her 7 years of sobriety. Trust me, you'll want to listen to this. She is one of the warmest humans you'll meet, someone that doesn't judge but still feels a passion to share her story in case you need it. Sometimes all it takes is knowing someone out there is by your side. At times we aren't in tune with our own mental health (we are consumed with so much!) and how we are traveling through our lives... until we hear a story and connect with it. I know I wouldn't be in tune with how my body was handling alcohol and the potential path I was traveling without Shelley and Kelley (see below for Kelley's info). Thank you for listening, sharing with someone you love and care about, talking about this with your closest friends, and supporting this podcast. Sending so much love to you all and know you're never alone. Mom Card Drawing of the Week: "You are loved. You are important. And you matter." - Christie Joyner Get to know Shelley more (and ask her how her Emotion Code Healing coaching is going!): Shelley's Favorites & Reccos: "Healing the Shame That Binds You" by John Bradshaw, "My Self" by Kelley Kitley (who I LOVE!) @kelleykitley.

“Sharing my story actually had the opposite effect. It opened up this whole other culture for me in terms of having platforms to share my experience on.” - Kelley KitleyAfter Kelly Kitley struggled in her relationship with alcohol for years, she decided to stop drinking altogether. She discovered that there are many communities to support sobriety, that there are practically infinite reasons people choose not to drink, and that the mainstream narrative on alcohol doesn't cover so many experiences. Kelley channeled her own experiences with alcohol, sexual violence, and mental illness into a stunning memoir that has expanded her therapeutic practice into public advocacy work as well as one-on-one treatment.This week on Find Your Fierce & Loving, Lola and Kelley dive into their relationships with alcohol, intimate partnerships, and their shared Oak Park neighborhood.

Therapist Kelley Kitley could have kept quiet about her own past. She had a thriving practice—first in Santa Monica, then in Chicago—and didn't need her clients knowing about her own experiences. Instead she decided to spill all...in her memoir, My Self: A Story of Survival, a memoir which details her experiences being sexually abused, developing an eating disorder and then struggling with addiction (she's now sober four-and-a-half years). In this episode, she talks about how her clients reacted to her own confessions, what happened when she told her father she was being abused and why "Get it Girl" is her motto, among many other topics. NOTE: This episode is from a Facebook Live interview that we did, which means that the audio isn't as sharp as it is on regular episodes. Please bear with that! And please tune into my regular Facebook Live interviews, which take place at 4 pm PST on Tuesdays (unless I have a conflict, in which case I reschedule but announce the change on my page. Make sure you Like my page so stay up on the info!)
