Christy Wynne: From Provence to Denver's First Alcohol-Free Bar

So to take an early exit and to say I'm not going to have part of that, like I am not going to just continuously consume alcohol and dull out from my life because I'm being marketed in this way or because that's what everyone around me is doing.
Picture this: you're living in the picturesque Provence, France, a place synonymous with wine culture. Yet, amidst all the vineyards, Christy Wynne made the bold decision to embrace sobriety. Now, she's not just a Sober Coach but also the visionary behind Denver's first alcohol-free bar, Awake. In this episode of the 'Sun & Moon Sober Living Podcast', Christy shares her remarkable journey with host Mary Tilson. Christy's background is as diverse as it is impressive.
She started as a Physician's Assistant and expanded her expertise into integrative medicine, nutrition, mindfulness, and Ayurveda. But it was her own struggle with alcohol that truly transformed her path. Since becoming alcohol-free in 2018, Christy has been on a mission to help others find joy and fulfillment without the need for a drink. During their conversation, Christy opens up about the surprising challenges and unexpected rewards of choosing sobriety in a place where wine flows freely.
She also delves into how she navigated the transition from personal recovery to creating a supportive community space with Awake. Here, people can enjoy socializing without the pressure of alcohol. But that's not all. Christy and Mary also tackle some thought-provoking topics: the pitfalls of mixing alcohol with wellness trends, the science behind why humans are prone to addiction, and practical tips for anyone rethinking their relationship with alcohol.
Christy's story is a testament to the power of slowing down and listening to one's inner voice. Whether you're on your own sobriety journey or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a wealth of insights and inspiration. Tune in to hear how Christy turned her personal challenge into a beacon of hope for others.
