Welcome to The Kori Leigh Show. I am your host, Kori.
I am a recovering alcoholic, mom, a former boss babe, while still being a business owner learning to submit to God and my husband - kind of woman. I’ve spent a lifetime dealing with mental health issues, addiction, a hardened heart and nervous system that was on perpetual overdrive from my dark and twisted past, trusting nobody. I entered into a couple decades of chaos and self-destruction after hitting rock bottom a few times and ultimately admitting defeat in December of 2016.
I believe wholeheartedly that my moment of absolute desperation was the moment that saved my life, and it was here that I found God, and I am now on a perpetual journey of learning to heal, soften, and deepen my faith. I have found incredible strength and hope in being surrounded by other addicts in recovery, who share a common solution and are dedicated to living a life of serenity, service and sobriety. And I believe that sharing stories of experience, strength and hope have the power to open our hearts, transcend our doubts, and offer us the right amount of light, no matter how dark it’s gotten for us to make it through.
God meets us in our mess and saves us because our mess is our service to the world. I know what it feels like to be lost. I know plaguing anxiety, dark depression, and an obsession to escape that has caused me to do unthinkable things to myself. I know hopelessness, I know faithlessness, I know paralyzing loneliness. But I also know recovery. I know hope. I know what it’s like to hit bottom, to surrender my will to a power greater than myself. I am to commit to living life according to spiritual principles that at first I did not trust, but that I have come now to totally transform my entire existence. What was once fake faith has turned into real faith and a life beyond what I could have ever imagined for myself. I am so glad you found this podcast. Though we may not always share the same stories, we often share the same feelings. And as a woman who was saved by God and fellowship, it is my greatest honor to be of service by bringing you stories from men and women who have felt the darkness, who hit rock bottom, and who have come to know faith and hope and serenity in a way that they never dreamt possible.
As we say in recovery, find the similarities and not the differences - together we heal.

47. This Wasn’t the Plan—But IT IS the Path | How to Move Through the Big Moments
This episode is raw, unfiltered, and straight from my heart... recorded from my car on a rainy day in Revelstoke (because sometimes life hands you a moment, and you just have to hit record).
I’m reflecting on the last eight years—where I’ve been, what I’ve walked through, and how recovery, faith, and surrender to God’s plan have completely changed me. From the heartbreak of my first marriage ending to rebuilding a life that’s rooted in something so much deeper, this is a look into what it means to keep going when the path isn’t clear.
In this episode, I talk about: 🌧️ Sitting in the uncertainty and learning to be okay there 🙏 What surrendering to God’s will actually looks like 🛤️ Taking the next indicated step, even when it’s hard 💛 The small daily choices that keep me grounded in recovery and faith
If you’re in a season of change, uncertainty, or just need a reminder that you’re not alone in the messy middle—this one’s for you.
