When you remove the label of Bianca, the drinker, Bianca, the party girl, and you created the new label because he was a sober person, how did that sit with the people around you? And I did lose some friends, for sure, because you kind of also just realized that like, hey, I don't, we're not even friends, we, we just hang out to drink.
What if you could find genuine joy without a drop of alcohol? That's exactly what Melbourne comedian Bianka Ismailvoski discovered after two years of sobriety. In this episode of 'How I Quit Alcohol', host Danni Carr chats with Bianka about the surprising and delightful changes she's experienced since quitting drinking.
Bianka opens up about the deeper connections she's made with people, the unexpected improvements in her personal life, and even how her sex life got better without booze clouding her mind. She also shares insights from her own podcast, 'We Can Do Better', where she dives into the impacts of alcohol and life without it.
Through candid conversation, Bianka recounts her journey from thinking she didn't have a problem because she held a job and didn't drink daily, to realizing her physical obsession with alcohol was undermining her confidence and social life. A pivotal moment came when she read 'How to Control Alcohol' by Annie Grace, which helped her quit drinking and discover that true fun and connection don't require alcohol. Bianka's story is a testament to the power of sobriety in finding authentic joy.
If you're curious about how to navigate societal pressures and the physical and mental hurdles of quitting alcohol, this episode offers a refreshing perspective. Tune in to hear Bianka's inspiring journey and perhaps find some encouragement for your own path to sobriety.
