When you eliminate something like that out of your life, your life becomes so much better.
Kate from Shropshire, known to her Instagram followers as walking_the_straight_line, joins Louise Barham on 'Sober, Free and Being Me' to share her compelling story of 300 days without alcohol. Kate opens up about the dark days of drinking up to 10 bottles of wine a week and the pivotal moment when she realized she couldn't go on like that anymore.
She describes the crushing feelings of doom, shame, and guilt that plagued her every morning and how she finally decided enough was enough. By videoing herself drunk and watching it back, Kate saw a version of herself she didn't want to be. This raw self-awareness pushed her to join an online sober community where accountability and mutual support became her lifeline. Through daily check-ins and sharing her journey with others, Kate found the strength to stay sober.
She talks about how this community not only helped her but also allowed her to help others in similar situations. Kate's story is a testament to the power of taking responsibility for one's actions and the transformative impact of living a healthier, sober life. She now enjoys simple pleasures in the countryside, free from the self-doubt and self-loathing that once consumed her. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of sobriety, self-discovery, and the importance of community support.
