Susan McGarry's Year of Triumph: From Doubt to Determination

By stopping alcohol, you can then work out what you've got left, if anything and for a lot, for you know, people that I've spoken to, their sleeps improved dramatically, you know, and they've unnecessarily blamed the menopause when in fact, the solution was always within their control.
What happens when you take a leap of faith into sobriety, even when you're unsure of the benefits? Meet Susan McGarry, a member of the Over The Influence community, who shares her incredible journey on the podcast. Last year, Susan was dubbed 'The Believer' as she placed her trust in the experiences of others despite not yet feeling the perks of an alcohol-free life.
Fast forward to today, and she's now 'The Achiever', having tackled every goal she set for herself, with sobriety as her bedrock. In this episode, Susan chats with hosts Sharon Hartley and Ben Anderson about the transformative power of quitting alcohol. They dive into topics like how ditching booze improved her sleep and eased menopause symptoms, something many listeners might relate to.
Susan also opens up about the fear and eventual strength found in vulnerability and honesty, key elements that have helped her connect deeply with herself and others. Sharon and Ben highlight the supportive OTI community and their adventurous outdoor activities, which Susan credits for pushing her beyond her limits. If you're curious about the real-life impact of living alcohol-free and want to hear an inspiring story of personal growth, this episode is a must-listen.
