Welcome to Healing Out Loud, a space where real stories meet real healing. I’m your host, Kaly Gallagher, and this podcast is all about honest conversations, personal growth, and the journey of becoming our best selves. Whether it’s recovery, relationships, or learning how to navigate life, we’re talking about it here — openly, honestly, and without judgment. Let’s heal, grow, and figure things out together.

In the first episode of Healing Out Loud, Kaly sits down with Alex, a recovering alcoholic who opens up about his journey with honesty and vulnerability. Together, they dive into Alex’s childhood experiences, the moments that led him to confront his addiction, and the role AA has played in rebuilding his life. Alex shares what recovery truly looks like day-to-day, how he stays grounded, and the mindset shifts that helped him become the person he is today. This episode offers raw conversation, real healing, and powerful reminders that recovery is possible for anyone.
