In this episode of Matt Gardiner LIVE, we meet Alex McRobert, affectionately known as 'Sober Yoga Girl'. Alex joins Matt from Bali to chat about her journey from a party girl searching for answers at the bottom of a bottle to becoming a celebrated author and yoga teacher. Her new book, 'Sober Yoga Girl', has already topped the charts as the number one new release in the category of yoga books in the U.S. on Amazon – quite an achievement!
But what’s even more fascinating is Alex's candid reflections on her journey and the emotional rollercoaster that came with writing her book. Alex opens up about her anxiety around publishing, especially the fear of unintentionally hurting others with her words. Despite these worries, she shares how writing became a therapeutic outlet, helping her dig out of a dark hole and find her true self.
The episode dives into her life in Bali, her teaching career, and how sobriety has shaped her path. Matt and Alex discuss the challenges of maintaining a yoga philosophy while balancing personal growth and the raw vulnerability that comes with sharing one's story. They also touch on the importance of mental health and spirituality in recovery, emphasising that sobriety is not a one-size-fits-all journey.
Alex’s experiences, from dealing with anxiety to finding joy in helping others through yoga, provide a relatable and inspiring narrative for anyone on their own path to recovery.
