I feel like I can truly now be myself. I feel like I have missed out so much years drowning myself in alcohol, but I'm excited. I'm excited about the connections that I've made. I'm looking forward to life again, really. And I would really like to thank Tribe Sober and the people that I've connected with.
What if the decision to stop drinking could open up a whole new chapter in your life? For Bontle Ngwana, a member of Tribe Sober, that's exactly what happened. After years of problematic drinking that started in her late teens and escalated through her university years, Bontle decided in May 2022 that enough was enough. She joined Tribe Sober and hasn't looked back since. In this episode, Bontle shares her candid story of battling alcohol misuse.
From her early twenties to her thirties, alcohol was a constant companion, even as she juggled studying and working. Her attempts to moderate her drinking were unsuccessful, leading to blackouts and a growing dependency that she could no longer ignore. By her early forties, Bontle realized she needed a change. Joining Tribe Sober proved to be the turning point. The support and coaching she received, particularly from Lynette, played a crucial role in her journey.
Bontle's excitement about her sobriety is palpable as she talks about the new phase of life she's embarked upon. Bontle's story is not just about giving up alcohol; it's about finding a supportive community, reclaiming control, and rediscovering joy in life. Her experience highlights the importance of seeking help and the transformative power of being part of a tribe that understands and supports your journey. If you're contemplating sobriety or already on the path, Bontle's journey offers hope and inspiration.
It's a reminder that with the right support and determination, you can turn your life around and embrace a brighter, alcohol-free future.
