I would love for my children to see that as an option, that they don't need to go and do this thing week in, week out, night in, night out. They could come across a post like yours or, yeah, I love what you do with that Saturday group as well, just having the space for people to come.
Ever felt like the monotony of daily life was dragging you down? Ellen Woods knows that feeling all too well. As a fitness and sobriety coach from the UK, Ellen opens up about her struggle with boredom and how it led her to alcohol. Once an adventurous spirit, she found herself trapped in the routine of motherhood and career, seeking solace in drinking. It wasn't until health issues surfaced that she realized the need for change.
Taking a brave step, she decided to go thirty days without alcohol—and she never looked back. In this episode of 'The Addictive Pod', Ellen shares the incredible benefits of sobriety, from improved health to newfound hobbies like hiking and cold water swimming. She discusses how sobriety brought her clarity and focus, allowing her to rediscover her passions and become a fitness and sobriety coach.
Ellen's story isn't just about quitting alcohol; it's about finding adventure and fulfillment in a life free from addiction. She highlights the importance of support and community in recovery, sharing how online sobriety groups and in-person meetings played a crucial role in her journey. Ellen even started her own Saturday group to help others connect and support each other.
Her story is a testament to the transformative power of sobriety and serves as an inspiration for anyone feeling stuck in their own routine. Tune in to hear Ellen's journey from boredom to brilliance and discover how you too can find adventure in sobriety.
