From Wounds to Wisdom: Healing, Sobriety, and Reinvention with Sabyn Mayfield
PUBLISHER’S NOTE
It’s Wednesday. And in episode 19 of The Sober Curator Podcast, host Alysse Bryson sits down with multi-hyphenate creative Sabyn Mayfield: musician, filmmaker, USA Boxing Masters Champion, and CEO of The Bridge to Recovery.

Together, Alysse and Sabyn unearth the complexities of recovery, the true meaning of healing from "wounds" rather than "trauma," and how authentic living becomes the ultimate reward of sobriety.
