What happens when a marathon runner decides to put down the bottle and lace up her running shoes for a different kind of race? In this episode of 'I Kissed Alcohol Goodbye', Dana Krull sits down with Joy Rumore, a dedicated runner from Tampa, FL, who decided to kick alcohol to the curb in June 2022. Joy's story isn't just about quitting drinking; it's about reclaiming her life and finding joy in sobriety.
She takes us back to her first encounter with alcohol in eighth grade and the growing discomfort that followed as she struggled with its grip on her life. Raised with certain values, Joy often felt guilt and conflict over her drinking habits, which only made quitting harder. But she made deals with herself, and even with God, to find a way out. The societal pressures to drink didn't make it any easier.
Joy's transformation since quitting is nothing short of remarkable. She talks about how sobriety has boosted her confidence, improved her relationships, and allowed her to truly experience life. Platforms like Reframe have provided her with a supportive community that has been crucial in her journey. Her advice for anyone considering sobriety? Take it one day at a time and you'll find gratitude in every step.
If you're looking for inspiration and practical tips on staying sober, this episode is a must-listen.
