In this episode of the 3-21 NoKiddin' Gambling Addiction Recovery Podcast, Bobbie the Awesome shares her transformative journey towards sobriety. Bobbie introduces the concept of 'sampling sobriety' - trying out life without alcohol for a period, without committing to permanent abstinence. She recounts her own experience of taking a sober trip to Asia, which required her to stay alcohol-free for 30 days before the trip and during the journey itself.
This adventure not only opened her eyes to the beauty of sober living but also led her to embrace long-term sobriety. Bobbie's story is filled with humour and candid moments, like crashing a Cambodian wedding, which highlight the unexpected joys of a sober lifestyle. She emphasises that everyone's path to sobriety is unique and encourages experimenting with different approaches, whether it's attending events sober or trying out 'zebra layering' - alternating alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks.
This episode is a refreshing take on how sobriety can be sampled in various ways to suit individual needs. Bobbie's personal anecdotes and practical advice make it an engaging listen for anyone curious about taking a break from alcohol. So, if you're contemplating Dry January or just want to hear an inspiring story, this episode is a must-listen.
