    From Alcoholic to Comedian: Chanie Lisbon’s Raw Story of Addiction, Faith & Forgiveness | Talk 2 Tamara

    Send us Fan Mail Comedian Chani Lisbon sits down with Tamara on Talk2Tamara for one of the rawest, most honest conversations yet — covering alcohol addiction, losing her faith, living with alopecia, and how she found her way back to sobriety, Hashem, and herself. Chani  opens up about taking her first drink at 15 and feeling like it was “the answer to her entire life,” becoming a functioning alcoholic in her 20s in New York, the random encounter on Kingston Avenue that led her to recovery, and the painful moments of relapse-adjacent temptation — including living with alopecia and losing her hair three times. This episode is honest, vulnerable, and unexpectedly funny. Chani shares how she rebuilt her relationship with Judaism, became a full-time Jewish comedian, moved from New York to Florida, and learned to forgive the people who hurt her most — including a moment where she looked at her abuser across a room and, for the first time, felt only love. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction, faith, identity, or forgiveness — this conversation will give you hope. 🎤 Guest: Chani Lisbon — Comedian 🎙️ Host: Tamara — Talk2Tamara WHAT WE COVER: 00:00 - Hook: A really hard day before the podcast 01:00 - Intro: Meet Chani Lisbon 03:00 - Growing up, divorce, and finding alcohol at 15 08:00 - Moving to New York and becoming a functioning alcoholic 14:00 - The moment that led to getting sober 19:00 - Alopecia, pain, and choosing not to drink 22:00 - Becoming a full-time Jewish comedian 28:00 - Moving from New York to Florida 35:00 - Forgiveness, faith, and looking at her abuser with love 49:00 - Dating, marriage, and surrendering to Hashem 58:00 - Where to find Chani + closing thoughts FOLLOW TAMARA: Instagram: @talk2tamara Website: Tamaragestetner.com FOLLOW CHANIE LISBON: Instagram: @chani_lisbon Merch: “Hashem is Legit” / “Good Jewish Girl” #Talk2Tamara #ChaniLisbon #SobrietyJourney #AddictionRecovery #JewishComedian #FaithAndRecovery #AlcoholAddiction #MentalHealthPodcast #PodcastInterview #RecoveryStory #Alopecia Support the show Follow Tamara on Instagram @Talk2Tamara, subscribe on your favorite podcast platform for new episodes on relationships and personal growth.
