Melody Woods: Finding Freedom in Sobriety

But I think for me, going sober has given me the headspace to assess what is going on and to really work on the root cause of the problem, rather than just, I think, sometimes sobriety- especially people around me, which we'll get on to, is just a plaster rather than sort of actually healing the wound.
Meet Melody Woods, affectionately known as Merlot Free Melody, in this episode of 'Over The Influence'. Hosts Sharon Hartley, Ben Anderson, and Freddie dive into Melody's compelling journey to an alcohol-free life. Melody opens up about her struggles with anxiety and how her childhood experiences with alcohol influenced her decision to quit. Unlike many stories, Melody's journey wasn't about hitting rock bottom; it was about recognizing the subtle but significant ways alcohol was affecting her life and relationships.
She shares how sobriety has given her the clarity to address underlying issues and improve her mental health. Melody also highlights the importance of community in her journey. She talks about the incredible support she's found through Instagram, connecting with other sober individuals who have become a vital part of her social life. This episode is a heartfelt conversation that sheds light on the power of community and self-reflection in achieving and maintaining sobriety.
Whether you're on your own sobriety journey or supporting someone who is, Melody's story offers valuable insights and inspiration.
