Camille's Journey: Embracing the New Sobriety Movement

Let's stop numbing ourselves and let's wake up to the real alcohol and, uh, ethanol, and that is a carcinogen, right like.
Ever thought about what life could be like without alcohol? In this episode of 'Recovery Happy Hour', host Tricia Lewis sits down with Camille to explore this very question. They kick things off by discussing the 'new sobriety' trend, a growing movement where more people are choosing to live alcohol-free. It's not just about ditching the drink; it's about redefining how we socialize and take care of our mental health.
Camille opens up about her college days filled with heavy partying and how a serious health scare became her wake-up call. She realized her drinking was taking a toll on her body and mind, leading her to make the brave decision to quit. The conversation also touches on the positive impact of this trend in changing societal views on sobriety, although it hasn't been without its controversies.
Camille and Tricia discuss the ups and downs of sober merchandise and how some people feel exploited by it. Camille also shares about her initiative, Think Beyond the Drink, which offers resources for those looking to embrace sobriety. This episode is a heartfelt mix of personal stories and broader insights into living a sober life. If you're curious about the new sobriety or looking for some inspiration to make a change, this one's for you.
