Dani Smith: This Is What Healing Feels Like

A Sober Girls Guide Podcast

Show Notes

I sit down with the vibrant and grounded Dani Smith to talk about what it really means to evolve, without losing your spark. From her struggle with marijuana addiction to embracing early sobriety, Dani opens up about finding clarity through movement and the radical honesty it takes to come home to yourself.

Trigger warning: Talk of suicidal ideation

This conversation is about more than just getting sober, it’s about redefining what fun looks like, using your body as a compass, and discovering that you’re still the life of the party, just a more conscious version. Key Highlights:

Dani’s journey with marijuana addiction and emotional numbing Early sobriety and the discomfort that leads to clarity Using movement (especially outdoors) to move stuck emotions The importance of honesty in healing and self-discovery Still being “the party” without the booze
