In this episode, we peel back the layers of our relationship with alcohol, tracing the path from our first sips to the moment we decided to stop for good. We explore the roots of our relationship with drinking and the moments that led us to say, "enough is enough." 

This episode not only charts the challenges and revelations of transitioning to sobriety but also marks the pivotal tipping point that led us to embrace a year without alcohol—a decision that has since become a permanent lifestyle.

We discuss the impact of sobriety on our physical health and mental clarity, the shifts in our social circles, and how our daily lives have been changed for the better. Beyond our story, we offer insights into the tools and strategies that have supported us along the way, providing listeners with practical advice, motivational tips, and the inspiration needed to embark on their own journey to sobriety.

Whether you're curious about sobriety, in the midst of your own sober journey, or simply seeking a story of transformation and resilience, this episode promises to enlighten, encourage, and empower.
