Tribe Sober – Inspiring an Alcohol-free Life!

After running Tribe Sober for 5 years and helping hundreds of people to ditch the drink and embrace alcohol-free living, I’ve learned a thing or two.  My biggest insight has been that sharing our stories around alcohol is the most powerful way we can help others – that’s why the heart of this podcast is recovery stories.

Ashleigh came to a workshop back in August 2018 and has recently celebrated her second Soberversary.

 

In this Episode

  • Ashleigh’s first scrape with alcohol came when she was expelled from school at the age of 15!
  • In her 30’s, she recognised that there could be a problem when she found herself making lots of rules around her drinking – rules that she promptly broke!
  • At the end of the workshop, she knew it would be pointless committing to “moderation” – she had to go “all in” – she knew she had crossed the line with her drinking and there was no looking back
  • She felt confident leaving the workshop – she had her toolkit, some new information and people to connect with – she felt she could do this
  • In the beginning, she treated herself to hot chocolate, coffee and cake, etc – but as time went on, she weaned herself off the sweet things – and has now lost 10kgs!
  • Ashleigh has experienced so many benefits of her sobriety – she is certainly less anxious and more confident these days
  • So the workshop was a real turning point in Ashley’s life – at the age of 40, she has celebrated two years of sobriety and has a different future ahead
  • She fully recognised that if she hadn’t taken this step, she could have been in a very different place in 5 years time – alcohol is a very “slippery fish” as she said!
