In this episode of Tribe Sober, host Janet Gorond chats with Esther from Red Shoes Recovery about her unique journey to sobriety. Esther's story begins with fun-filled teenage drinking that gradually morphed into a coping mechanism for loneliness and life stresses in her twenties. Hitting rock bottom in her forties, Esther found herself reflecting on a song that resonated deeply with her feelings of being lost.
This pivotal moment, combined with her brother's wedding, marked the beginning of her path to sobriety. Instead of declaring a complete stop to drinking, Esther focused on staying sober and enjoying the benefits. She embraced yoga, which played a significant role in her recovery by helping her process emotions and reduce her drinking. Esther's approach to sobriety is refreshingly different—she views it as a positive choice rather than a punishment.
Esther shares her insights on self-awareness and personal growth, emphasising the importance of self-care, breathing techniques, and writing. These tools have been crucial in her journey and now form the basis of her PEACE model for coaching. PEACE stands for Purpose, Energy, Awareness, Connection, and Emotions—elements that have helped Esther and many others find peace in sobriety. This episode is a must-listen for anyone struggling with alcohol or looking for inspiration to stay sober.
Esther's story is a testament to the power of self-discovery and the benefits of an alcohol-free life. Her journey reminds us that it's not about deprivation but about embracing a life full of possibilities and peace. Tune in to hear Esther's inspiring story and gain valuable insights into the benefits of sobriety. Whether you're sober curious or well into your recovery journey, this episode offers a fresh perspective on living an alcohol-free life.
