I’ve created this podcast to share my experiences on the difficulties I had whilst drinking and why I decided to lead a sober lifestyle. I think it’s vitally important that alcoholism is discussed openly without fear of being stigmatised or judged. The more we talk about it, the less of a taboo it comes! I’m looking forward to sharing my story and speaking to guests to discuss our stories from the depths of despair during our drinking days, to understand how our lives have changed for the better since becoming sober.

Kate from Shropshire - 300 days sober

On this episode I chat to the lovely Kate from Shropshire, AKA Instagram's very own video queen - walking_the_straight_line

Kate talks about her journey of self-discovery, videoing herself drunk and watching it back made her recognise that enough was enough and that she didn't want to live that life anymore. Waking up with that dreaded sense of impending doom, shame and guilt and trying to understand why she kept putting herself through this time and time again.

From drinking 10 bottles of wine a week to her glorious life out in the country enjoying life's simple pleasures and how since becoming sober and living a healthier life, she no longer has those awful feelings of self-doubt and self-loathing.

Kate talks us through how she got sober by joining an online sober community and taking responsibility and being accountable to herself and the group on a daily basis for her sobriety. Being supported and helping others in the same boat along the way has given her a solid foundation on her road to recovery.
