Is Moderate Drinking a Myth? Lisa's Sobriety Story on Recovery Elevator

It's not a question of: can I moderately drink? Then of course you'll realize alcohol isn't in line with that goal. If you want to fully build that inner peace and be able to roll with the punches that life throws your way, then moderate drinking isn't an option.
Can you really drink in moderation and still live your best life? In this episode of Recovery Elevator, Paul Churchill and Kristopher Oyen tackle this tricky question with their guest, Lisa, a nurse and single mom from Minneapolis. Lisa took her last drink on December 16, 2017, and she opens up about her journey from teenage drinking to finding peace in sobriety.
She shares how attempts at moderate drinking never brought her the happiness she sought and instead led to more struggles. Lisa discusses the turning point that made her choose a life without alcohol and how faith, joy, and self-care became her guiding principles. Paul and Kris also explore the importance of support groups and mindfulness in maintaining sobriety. Whether you're questioning your own drinking habits or supporting someone who is, Lisa's story offers valuable insights and inspiration.
Tune in to hear how she navigated the challenges and found a fulfilling life on the other side of alcohol.
