Life in sobriety is so incredibly beautiful. I can't believe that this is my life and I am.
Holiday weekends can be a minefield for those in early sobriety, but Sarah Elizabeth from 'Sober Gratitudes' has some practical advice to share. In this episode, Sarah dives into the struggles and triumphs of navigating long weekends without alcohol. She kicks things off with a humorous anecdote about getting progressive glasses, a small nod to aging gracefully in sobriety.
But the real meat of the episode is her candid discussion on how she used to view holiday weekends as prime drinking opportunities. Sarah opens up about her past, where she often found herself hiding in the crowd with a drink in hand, thinking it made socializing easier. However, she soon realized that alcohol was wreaking havoc on her relationships and mental health.
With honesty and a touch of humor, she recounts how she once had a “piss-ass attitude” that only came out when she was drinking. Now, she’s found new ways to enjoy these weekends without alcohol, and she’s eager to share those strategies with her listeners. Sarah emphasizes that sobriety doesn’t mean missing out on fun; it’s about finding new, healthier ways to enjoy life.
She encourages anyone struggling with addiction to reach out for support, whether through her podcast or other resources. The episode is a heartfelt reminder that you don’t have to face these challenges alone, and that a beautiful life in sobriety is possible. Whether you’re newly sober or have been on this journey for a while, Sarah’s insights offer a comforting blend of empathy and practical advice.
