Megan's Brave New World: Embracing Sobriety and Unleashing Creativity

I'm really happy you're here and let's just get right into it. Yeah, if this didn't give you some confidence and some strength and some belief in yourself, I don't know what else can because you decided to go for it and now you're on this podcast during the pandemic- the craziest time we've experienced collectively in a long time.
What happens when you trade in your drink for a paintbrush? Megan, a 33-year-old cook from Montreal, found out when she took her last drink on April 20, 2020. In this episode of Recovery Elevator, she shares her inspiring journey of living alcohol-free for over 100 days. Megan's story is one of courage, creativity, and community. She opens up about the benefits of sobriety, like increased stamina and mental clarity, which have helped her flourish both personally and professionally.
Working in a vegan restaurant, she has discovered that her newfound sobriety is a major asset in the kitchen. Megan also dives into the challenges she faced, such as navigating sobriety without medication and addressing old habits that numbed her pain. She highlights the importance of accountability and community, crediting Café RE and her accountability partner for their support. This episode is a testament to how ditching booze can lead to a more fulfilling and creative life.
Tune in to hear Megan's story and get inspired to find your own path to sobriety.
