Manage episode 380146271 series 2951309
I am honored to have on the show today, Jessica Dueñas. Jessica is the founder of Bottomless to Sober and was named the 2019 Kentucky State Teacher of the Year. In this candid conversation, she shares her journey as a teacher who grappled with a hidden drinking problem and personal struggles, emerging on the other side.
Jessica’s mission is to help others transform their relationship with alcohol. Her focus extends to educators and teachers who face immense pressure to maintain an image of perfection in the public eye. She has been featured on Red Table Talk, NPR, CBS Evening News, and PBS.
We talk about:
- How Jessica went from Teacher of the Year to inpatient rehab
- Differences in Latin American Culture and drinking
- The loneliness of hiding a drinking problem
- How we can better support teachers and other helping professionals
- Using writing as a healing tool
- Jessica’s top tips to change your drinking
- And more!
