Are you stuck in the rut of addiction looking for some hope for change? Or are you already in recovery but struggling with your emotional sobriety & feeling anxious about whether or not you’re doing this life thing right? Are you a self-proclaimed perfectionist constantly worried about what others think of you? Do you feel childhood and family patterns repeating themselves in your marriage or relationships? Did the pink cloud fade a long time ago only to be replaced with the restlessness, irritability, and discontent of those familiar drunken days?
Maybe you’re a high achiever and on the outside, you have everything you need and even some of the things you want - but you’re still feeling dissatisfied. People see success when they look at you but all you see when you look in the mirror is a person you don’t even recognize - just like those 3am accidental glimpses in the mirror when you were crying in the bathroom. Desperate for a solution & crying out to a God you weren’t sure you even believed in. OH desperation - what a gift that was!
In this podcast you’re gonna hear stories of hope for sober living. Stories with solutions to emotional health, relationships, and that critical inner voice as well as transparent and authentic conversations about navigating mental health, faith, and relationships in recovery.
My name’s Felicia and I’m a 12-stepper turned therapist. I’m married and I have two littles under 5. I grew up in church but I didn’t find Jesus or understand grace until I found the rooms of AA in 2011. I love Jesus but have had my fair share of struggling with church culture and religion. I know what it’s like to be stuck in a restless, irritable, and discontent rut (drunk & sober). This next season I’m going to be shifting the podcast focus to stories of hope for sober living. This change comes after a year of podcasting and recognizing more than ever the power of storytelling and my hope to reach a larger audience of listeners seeking a solution to their addiction in addition to solutions for living sober. There will still at times be a focus on reaching parents in recovery since this is such a huge part of my recovery, but not all my guests who will be sharing their experience, strength, and hope, will be parents.
I’m so glad you’re here!

49 | Are you investing time in spiritual growth? The importance of faith in recovery. Seek, and you will find
In today's soulful episode of Sobriety Checkpoint, join your host Felicia Hermle as she opens her heart and shares her personal reflections on the complex interplay between faith, religion, and the pursuit of a Higher Power. With almost 13 years of sobriety and a deep passion for spiritual seeking, Felicia invites you into an intimate conversation about the beauty of developing a relationship with something greater than ourselves within the framework of twelve-step programs and beyond.
Felicia candidly explores the challenges and liberations she's encountered on her journey, particularly the delicate dance with organized religion and the inner peace that comes from an open-minded approach to faith. She discusses the transformative power of seeking without fear, trusting that a loving God, synonymous with love itself, will guide you—even amidst struggle and uncertainty.
This episode isn't just a narrative; it's an invitation to explore, to be curious, and to find solace in the freedom of belief. Felicia encourages parents in recovery to harness their faith as a source of strength, not just for sobriety, but also for parenting with hope and tranquility.
Whether you're looking to deepen your spiritual connection, understand the role of faith in recovery, or simply need a compassionate ear, Felicia's message is clear: Keep seeking, and you will find. And remember, the journey doesn't end; it only grows deeper, bringing more peace into your life as you walk towards your higher power.
We'd love to hear your thoughts on this topic. Join the conversation in our Facebook group, slide into our DMs, or send an email. This is a space for safe exploration, and we're here to support you in your spiritual quest, whatever that may look like for you.
Thank you for tuning in to this heartfelt episode. If it resonated with you, please consider sharing it with someone who might benefit from this message of love and seeking. Don't forget to subscribe and leave us a five-star written review to help other parents in recovery find our community.
Tune in next Thursday for your next dose of inspiration, and until then, remember the strength within you, the grace available to you, and the endless possibilities of seeking a Higher Power.
