Lucy Rocca on Soberistas: From Blackout to Breakthrough

What happens when you get sober is your life expands, and that's exactly what you just described.
What happens when a terrifying blackout becomes a turning point for change? Lucy Rocca, founder of the Soberistas website, shares her powerful story with Veronica Valli and Chip Somers on Soberful. Eight years ago, Lucy woke up in a hospital, vowing never to drink again. This episode delves into her journey from that pivotal moment to creating a supportive community for those seeking sobriety.
Lucy opens up about her relationship with alcohol, the challenges she faced in getting sober, and how she has maintained her sobriety for eight years. The conversation also touches on the British drinking culture and its societal impacts, providing a candid look at how deeply ingrained alcohol is in daily life. Parenting while sober presents its own set of challenges, and Lucy, along with the hosts, discusses the importance of teaching emotional intelligence and handling feelings without resorting to alcohol.
They also explore the significance of anonymity in recovery communities and how it can offer a safe space for individuals to heal and grow. If you're curious about life after alcohol and how one woman turned her darkest moment into a mission to help others, this episode is a must-listen.
