Sarah Williamson's Journey: Finding Joy Beyond Alcohol

I felt like I couldn't quite bring myself to be brave enough to say those words right out loud at the beginning... But That Days is really a good number for you.
What does it take to change your relationship with alcohol before hitting rock bottom? In this episode of 'God Took Me to Las Vegas', host Randy Mortensen sits down with Sarah Williamson, the founder of 'Drink Less Live Better'. Sarah, who has spent over a decade coaching and mentoring individuals grappling with addiction and mental health issues, opens up about her personal path to sobriety and the profound changes it brought to her life.
Celebrating three years of sobriety, Sarah reflects on the challenging yet rewarding journey of deciding to quit drinking. She shares candidly about the six months it took her to fully commit to sobriety after making the initial decision, emphasizing that it's never too early to seek change. Sarah passionately believes that life can be joyful and fulfilling without alcohol.
She dispels the myth that sobriety is synonymous with boredom, recounting her own experiences of finding new joy and fun in life post-drinking. The conversation also touches on the broader challenges faced by those seeking help for substance use disorders, including the pervasive stigma and limited access to support. Sarah highlights the alarming statistic that only 1 in 10 Americans with a substance use disorder receives treatment, underlining the urgent need for more accessible resources.
Through thoughtful dialogue, she underscores the power of self-control and the importance of supportive conversations in the recovery journey. For anyone struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a blend of hope, practical advice, and heartfelt encouragement. Tune in to hear Sarah's inspiring story and learn how changing your relationship with alcohol can lead to a happier, healthier life.
