This week we have the fantastic Kelly Marie on the podcast! Kelly, a.k.a. K-Marie, has been sober since missing a flight on 30th December 2023 when she decided that all this getting drunk nonsense was getting a bit O.T.T. She packed it in, listened to OTI and decided to help spread the word about how great sobriety can be! Kelly is a house music lover and recognised that there aren't enough sober events out there, especially in party spots like Ibiza where she has spent so much of her life. So she has taken matters into her own hands and co-founded Sober Sound System Ibiza! Thanks so much to Kelly for coming on the pod and sharing your story! If you would like to know more about Sober Sounds System Ibiza or go to one of their events, make sure to visit the Instagram page. --- Get In Touch: Of course, you can always get in touch with us (publicly or privately) on our socials - @alcoholfreepod on Instagram, or search for "Over The Influence" on Facebook.

Warning: this podcast contains references to recreational drugs What a story we have for you this week, courtesy of the fantastic Sean Willers! Sean is now nearly two years sober and is a lifestyle and fitness coach having been a DJ travelling all over Europe. You'll find out about how his troubled youth led to problematic drinking which then led to recreational drugs as an adult. You'll also hear about when he decided that enough was enough, he knew the only way to change was to face his issues head on. He's now using his platform to encourage people in a similar situation to where he was to take back control. Thanks so much for coming on the pod Sean and if you'd like more info on Sean you can visit his Instagram or LinkedIn. --- Get In Touch: Of course, you can always get in touch with us (publicly or privately) on our socials - @alcoholfreepod on Instagram, or search for "Over The Influence" on Facebook.

We have a first on the pod this week; we've had all sorts of family duos but never sisters... until now! We're delighted to welcome Sharon and Lauretta Gavin to Over The Influence! Both sisters have been alcohol free now for twelve years and much like most others who drop the booze, it wasn't meant to be forever. What started as a break, developed into something which triggered an enormous amount of good changes in both of their lives. Among the many other strings on their respective bows, they have a wellness retreat centre The Detox Barn, and you can keep up to date with all things Gavin sisters at gavinsisters.co.uk.

On the pod this week, we finally welcome the wonderful Sarah Rusbatch to Over The Influence! Sarah is originally from Manchester and now lives in the much sunnier Perth, Australia. We've wanted to get together for ages but with time zones it's been tricky. We found out she was back in the UK so we took our opportunity to get her on the pod! Sarah is author of the best selling book “Beyond Booze, How to create a life you love Alcohol Free", a multi-award winning Health and Wellbeing Coach, an accredited Grey Area Drinking Coach, a menopause coach and a Key-Note speaker sharing her journey to Sobriety and impact of alcohol on mental health to global audiences. She has so much to share with us on the pod and we're delighted we managed to get her on. Thanks for your time Sarah!
