Summary

This episode is pretty controversial—I’m breaking my silence about “guru culture.” For years, I’ve been quiet about the deeply disappointing truths that were revealed about two different “gurus” that I followed. In this episode, I’m speaking out. I'll share why you should avoid “gurus” and teach you how to return to love when trust has been broken. The following are helpful resources and books I mention within the episode: In You Are The Guru, I teach you how to be your own guide and trust your inner wisdom to give you clear direction.

0:02.8	Hi there, Gabby here.
0:04.6	This podcast is intended to educate, inspire, and support you on your personal journey towards
0:11.0	inner peace. I'm not a psychologist or a medical doctor and do not offer any professional health

0:33.3	April is alcohol awareness month and this is very meaningful to me. If you know me, you know that
0:39.4	I'm about 17 and a half years sober at this point. And if it were not for my sober recovery,
0:44.4	I don't know where I would be. I definitely would not be here speaking with you,
0:48.6	deer gabby and you supporting you in this way. And throughout my sobriety, I've had the real privilege
0:53.2	of being able to be in the service of others and work with dozens of organizations and share
1:00.7	my own journey and my own experience of sobriety. And most recently, I joined the board of

1:31.2	or one in every 12 adults suffer from alcohol use disorder. And more than half of all adults have a
1:36.7	family history of problem drinking. Alcohol use is on the rise, especially among women.
1:41.6	And that's why I really want to come out today and support McCall during this month.
1:45.6	McCall Behavioral Health Network is a nonprofit organization for individuals of all ages and
1:50.4	families across Connecticut. And here's the reason why I chose to be on the board at McCall.
