Ditching the drink is like climbing a mountain. Here at Tribe Sober, we've climbed that mountain, and we know the view from the top is amazing. And that's just for starters. It's the essential resource for anyone looking to ditch the drink and change their life.
What happens when two former heavy drinkers who have both faced breast cancer sit down for a chat? You get a conversation that's as enlightening as it is heartfelt. In this episode of 'Tribe Sober', host Janet Gourand welcomes back Kathryn Elliott, an alcohol mindset coach and breast cancer survivor. Both women share their personal journeys from binge drinking to sobriety, shedding light on the often-overlooked connection between alcohol and breast cancer.
Kathryn opens up about her past as a binge drinker from the age of 15 to 46, a habit that was not only accepted but celebrated by her peers. She and Janet discuss how binge drinking is often misunderstood and normalized, especially when it starts in teenage years and continues into adulthood. They dive deep into what binge drinking really means and how it's more common than most people think. But the conversation doesn't stop at personal stories.
Janet and Kathryn also tackle the importance of educating others about the health risks associated with alcohol, particularly in the workplace. Kathryn's work as an alcohol mindset coach has revealed that many people are unaware of the true definition of binge drinking and its severe implications. This episode is packed with practical advice and eye-opening information that will make you think twice before reaching for that next drink.
Whether you're already on a sober journey or just starting to question your relationship with alcohol, this conversation offers valuable insights and encouragement. Janet and Kathryn's stories serve as a powerful reminder of the benefits of an alcohol-free lifestyle, both for your health and your overall well-being.
