From Party Girl to Yoga Guru: Lissie Turner's Sobriety Story

Because- and I say this to teachers who come and teach for us as well, or teachers who are seeking guidance or training from us that when you've experienced yoga like really actually saving your ass, then you are so deeply connected.
Imagine being a high-profile radio presenter, living life in the fast lane, and partying with celebrities like Pharrell Williams and Jack Black. That was Lissie Turner's world until she decided to swap the chaos for calm. In this episode of 'How I Quit Alcohol', host Danni Carr sits down with Lissie, who opens up about her wild past and the transformative journey to sobriety.
Lissie, once known as Mel Bampton from JJJ's Mel In The Morning, shares how her party lifestyle took a toll on her parenting and well-being. She candidly discusses the societal pressures that normalize excessive drinking and how it masked deeper issues. But it wasn't just about quitting alcohol; it was about filling the void it left behind. For Lissie, yoga became her sanctuary.
Alongside her husband Shane, she now runs a serene yoga studio in Northern Rivers, NSW, where they host workshops aimed at breaking free from self-limiting behaviors. They’ve turned their lives around and are dedicated to helping others do the same. Lissie's story is a testament to the power of community and spiritual growth in addiction recovery.
Whether you're struggling with alcohol or seeking inspiration for a healthier lifestyle, this episode offers a heartfelt look at one woman's path to a more fulfilled life.
