Ever wondered how someone can turn their life around from being a party animal to leading an alcohol-free movement? In this episode, Janet Gorond chats with Hannah from the Sober Butterfly Collective, who shares her compelling journey from teenage drinking to sobriety. Hannah's story is a testament to the power of self-reflection and the impact of supportive communities. Her drinking habits escalated during her career in hospitality, eventually becoming a coping mechanism for stress.
A panic attack during a hen party in Barcelona was the wake-up call she needed to reassess her relationship with alcohol. She embarked on 'Sober October' in 2019, using it as a time to reflect on her life goals and realised that alcohol was holding her back. This transformative period led her to stay sober beyond October, navigating social situations with newfound confidence.
Hannah's journey didn't stop at personal sobriety; she founded the Sober Butterfly Collective to help others find alcohol-free connections and friendships. Through monthly coffee meet-ups and diverse social activities across the UK, Hannah has created a supportive community for those seeking a sober lifestyle. Her advice? Create a self-care menu, connect with sober communities, and get curious about life without alcohol.
This episode is packed with relatable anecdotes, practical tips, and inspiring moments that will resonate with anyone on their own journey to sobriety. Don't miss out on Hannah's story – it's a real eye-opener!
