Dave Wilson: From Solitude to Sobriety

Listen Later

We’re kicking off 2021 and Season 3 of Pivot Points, with Dave Wilson aka @soberdave.

In January 2019 Dave made the decision to go sober after 40 years of excessive drinking.

He charted his new found sobriety on instagram, and quickly found himself part of the most incredible online support community.

This conversation covers so much ground, from sobriety, the impact of alcoholism, cancer, love, abandonment, taking on someone else's children, to being a geezer in Wandsworth amongst all the 'yummy mummy's'!

We learn:

  • That connection is the opposite of addiction
  • Alcohol is like an abusive relationship
  • How to look at consequences. Wind it forward - past the first 30 mins of drinking onto what happens next
  • To look at alcohol like an allergy - you don’t just “get over it”.
