S1 Ep10: Reflecting on Sobriety – Insights from Series 1

If you get a flat tire on your car, you've got a choice: you either fix the problem and you move on, or you go around your car and you slash the other three tires just to really mess up your day, and you don't have to do that. You can get back on your journey, you can move on, because none of us are perfect.
Ever wondered what it's like to truly embrace an alcohol-free life? In this wrap-up episode of 'Over The Influence', hosts Sharon Hartley and Freddie Bennett take a heartfelt look back at their journey through Series 1. Both having ditched the booze, they share personal stories and practical advice for anyone curious about sobriety or already on the path.
Sharon, a BBC broadcast journalist, and Freddie, a Guinness World Record holder, offer a candid discussion on the highs and lows of living alcohol-free. They emphasize the power of community support, underscoring how crucial it is to surround yourself with people who understand your journey. The duo also opens up about the hurdles they've faced, from navigating social gatherings to dealing with emotional triggers. Their message is clear: the benefits of sobriety far outweigh the fleeting pleasure of a drink.
They remind listeners that it's okay to stumble and that imperfection is part of the process. If you're contemplating quitting alcohol or seeking motivation to stay the course, this episode is packed with inspiration and encouragement. Tune in for a genuine conversation that celebrates the victories and acknowledges the challenges of an alcohol-free lifestyle.
