Sarah's Sobriety: Overcoming Binge Drinking and Embracing Wellness
I think I realised how emotionally embedded alcohol was in My Day To Day... moving out of London and moving to the country, suddenly being at home with not one but two children.
Imagine facing the holidays without a drink in hand, just weeks into your journey to sobriety. That’s Sarah’s reality. In this episode of 'Voices of Sobriety: Real People, Real Recovery', Terry, known as Sassy Sober Mum on Instagram, chats with Sarah, a mum of two from East Sussex who has been sober for just over a year. Sarah opens up about her past struggles with binge drinking and how quitting alcohol has transformed her mental health and overall well-being.
She shares practical advice, like her 'Christmas toolbox', which helped her navigate her first sober holiday season. From finding new hobbies to exploring the non-alcoholic market, Sarah discusses how she’s adapted to a life without alcohol. She also touches on the changing attitudes towards drinking, parenting while sober, and dealing with social pressures. Sarah's story is a blend of raw honesty and uplifting moments, making it a must-listen for anyone on their own path to sobriety.
