Breaking the Chains of Comparison: Sarah Elizabeth’s Sobriety Journey

Comparing myself with others does not help me. It only robs me of a better life, a more peaceful life. Comparison robs me of living an authentic life. It blocks me from holding space to help you.
Ever found yourself comparing your drinking habits to others, thinking you were doing just fine? In this eye-opening episode of 'Sober Gratitudes', host Sarah Elizabeth dives into her own experience with this mindset. She candidly shares how, during her days of active drinking, she would constantly measure her consumption against others, using it as a false reassurance that she didn’t have a problem. Watching shows like 'Intervention' only reinforced this illusion, making her feel better about her own habits.
But as Sarah reveals, these comparisons were just a trap that kept her from confronting the reality of her addiction. Through heartfelt storytelling, she explains how she eventually broke free from this cycle by identifying with other alcoholics and embracing an authentic life in sobriety. This episode is a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction, offering insights into the dangers of comparison and the power of community in recovery.
Tune in to hear Sarah’s inspiring journey and discover how you too can find freedom and hope in sobriety.
