Sophie Lyons: Belonging, Yoga and Queerness in Recovery
#119: As Liz and Bryce gear up for Season 2 of the Podcast, we are taking a brief hiatus from recording new podcast episodes. In the interim, we've chosen some of our favorite episodes to re-share with you. Check out episode #30 with Sophie Lyons to hear her story and learn something you didn't catch the first time around.
*Please note in this episode there is mention of specific aspects of eating disorders. If this type of conversation feels unsafe for you, it is always ok to skip a week, or have a trusted friend pre-listen before you dive in.
Sophie a yoga teacher, queer person in recovery, and passionate advocate for her community. We touch on topics close to Sophie's heart, including:
- How substance use disorder and eating disorder recovery are intricately connected.
- What it was like to join recovery groups as a young person, and how not hitting a traditional "rock bottom" made her question her place there.
- How being open about who she is can empower and break down stigma for others in the LGBTQIA+ community.
