Abi Feltham: From Wanderlust to Wellness
“Getting sober requires a rewiring of the brain and instead of reaching for a drink, we have to learn how to reach for support.”
Ever wondered how a life of adventure can spiral into a battle with addiction? In this episode of 'One For The Road', David Wilson, also known as SoberDave, sits down with Abi Feltham, a London-based content creator whose story is both eye-opening and inspiring. Abi spent ten years backpacking around the globe, living a life many would envy. But behind the picturesque travel photos was a growing struggle with drug and alcohol addiction, compounded by deteriorating mental health.
When the pandemic hit, Abi found herself back in the UK, forced to confront her inner demons. With nowhere to run, she made the brave decision to clean up her life and embark on the path to recovery. Since April 2020, Abi has been clean and sober, and she now uses her platform to share the raw realities of sobriety and self-discovery.
In this heartfelt conversation, Abi opens up about the highs and lows of her journey, the importance of seeking help, and how she found a new appreciation for life. If you're curious about how someone can turn their life around amidst chaos, this episode offers a candid look at the transformative power of recovery.
