Cat Sims' Journey: From Dark Times to Sobriety

People who don't have a problem with alcohol don't have voices in their head constantly questioning their drinking.
What happens when you decide to give up alcohol entirely? In this episode of 'Sort Your Sh*t Out', comedian Ellie Gibson and coach Stephanie Chivers sit down with the refreshingly candid Cat Sims, known on Instagram as @notsosmugnow. Cat opens up about the difficult moments that led her to quit drinking and the valuable lessons she’s picked up along the way. With humor and honesty, Cat shares her experience attending AA meetings and how she navigates life without booze.
Ellie and Stephanie also dive into the sometimes tricky topic of labels—do we really need them? Stephanie offers her perspective, while Cat reveals whether she’s silently judging Ellie’s choice to cut down rather than cut out alcohol completely. This episode isn’t just about quitting; it’s about finding what works for you and letting go of what doesn’t. Expect plenty of laughs and a few poignant moments as they discuss the impact of alcohol on relationships and self-worth.
They also explore the importance of community support and offer practical tips for anyone looking to reduce their alcohol intake. Whether you're contemplating sobriety or just curious about moderation, this conversation is packed with insights and real-life experiences. So grab a can of Remedy Kombucha (the Ginger Lemon flavor comes highly recommended) and tune in for a heartfelt chat that might just inspire you to rethink your relationship with alcohol.
