LAURA KNOWS –
Oct. 30, 2024 – A woman who was drinking up to four bottles of wine every night has spoken about her recovery journey and the one question she claims can help determine if somebody has a problem with alcohol. Laura Van Antwerp, 39, from Pennsylvania, started drinking when she was a teenager … After years of trying to hide her addiction, job demotions, drinking under the influence (DUI) charges, and a ‘rock bottom’ incident where she woke up in a public place after blacking out, she made the life-changing decision to cut out alcohol for good.
Now seven years sober, Laura is the founder of Your Sober Pal, where she helps others who are struggling with addiction.
Free from alcohol and the control it had on her life, Laura is now thriving, but it hasn’t always been so straightforward.
“I first started drinking at 18 and immediately jumped into the party scene,” Laura tells Tyla.
