Luke B's Path to Sober Adventure: Running Towards a Brighter Future

Episode Overview

  • Luke's journey from alcohol addiction to embracing a thriving sober lifestyle
  • The impact of ADHD on Luke's struggle with alcohol
  • Importance of finding a supportive community and setting meaningful goals
  • Resilience and self-discovery in Luke's path to sobriety
I just love it, I absolutely love it. A lot of fitness, a lot of running, and just getting outside really, getting out in nature. Yeah, nature is great therapy, free therapy as well. Yeah, it is the half marathon. I think the longest I have gone distance-wise is the great south run.
Imagine feeling like you need alcohol to fit in, only to discover a whole new world of joy without it. That's Luke B's story. Originally from Stratford-Upon-Avon and now living in Wales, Luke has been sober for almost 10 months. His journey wasn't easy, marked by multiple stays at The Priory and the recent revelation of an ADHD diagnosis.
Luke opens up about his rocky relationship with alcohol, describing how he often hit 'mini rock bottoms' that pushed him towards change. Now, he's found solace in running and outdoor activities, which have become cornerstones of his new, sober life. This episode is a testament to Luke's resilience and the joy he's found in sobriety. It's an inspiring tale for anyone looking to break free from the clutches of alcohol and embrace a healthier, more fulfilling life.
