Bottles clink in fragile boxes. A flawless disguise. One friend shattered the quiet.
On this hauntingly powerful episode of The Cup of Joe Show, Sonja O. strips bare the years she chased perfection while drowning in addiction—now celebrating 18 years sober. She hid her pain in betrayal, shattered trust, and a secret stash of empty bottles stuffed into appliance boxes labeled “fragile”—a mirror to the truth she couldn’t face. The shame of drifting from her beloved children and the lie that she was beyond saving nearly buried her, until Margaret, a lifelong friend, saw the hope Sonja couldn’t. That lifeline sparked a reckoning that turned her life inside out. Raw, real, and relentlessly inspiring, Sonja’s story is for anyone in recovery, holding space for a fighter, or addicted to tales of breaking free.
