Lauren Linnane's Journey from Fine Wines to Sobriety

I burnt some pretty big bridges and my parents are raising my two youngest children now and they have full control over how much I see them. You'd think that would be enough for anybody to go.
Picture this: a successful businesswoman with a passion for fine wines, driving a Mercedes, and seemingly having it all. That's where Lauren Linnane's story begins. But beneath the surface, Lauren's drinking habit was spiraling out of control. In this episode of 'How I Quit Alcohol,' host Danni Carr sits down with Lauren, who bravely shares her harrowing journey from a life of luxury to battling severe addiction. Lauren's descent into alcoholism was gradual but relentless.
She went from enjoying fine wines to hiding her drinking from her family, and eventually found herself addicted to metho, losing custody of her children in the process. Despite trying everything from yoga to therapy, nothing seemed to work until she sought help from the Buttery rehab center in Byron Bay and embraced a 12-step program. Now over three years sober, Lauren's story is one of resilience and transformation.
She opens up about the challenges she faced, the rock-bottom moments, and the long road to recovery. Her candid account serves as a powerful reminder that seeking help is crucial and that it's never too late to turn your life around. If you're struggling with alcohol dependency or know someone who is, Lauren's story offers hope and inspiration. Tune in to hear how she rebuilt her life and relationships, proving that recovery is possible with the right support and determination.
