What happens when a health scare becomes a wake-up call to change your life? For Andrew Hash, a diagnosis of precancerous cells was the jolt he needed to stop his daily whiskey habit. In this engaging episode of 'I Kissed Alcohol Goodbye', host Dana Michael Krull meets Andrew at the cozy Jolly Pirate Donuts in Grove City, Ohio, to chat about his 13-month journey of sobriety.
The conversation is candid and filled with valuable advice for anyone on the path to recovery.

He shares his strategy for managing cravings, emphasizing the critical first 10-15 minutes, and finding healthy distractions to stay focused.

This episode isn't just about the struggles; it's also about the joys of sober living. Andrew talks about 'recovering out loud' and finding fun in non-alcoholic beverages while still enjoying social outings.
Whether you're newly sober or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a wealth of practical tips and relatable experiences that can help you stay on track. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that underscores the power of connection and self-kindness in the journey to sobriety.
