EP 43: Rock Bottom: It's How You Feel, Not What Happened

In this episode, Maureen sits down with Becca Stahl, the editor behind Sober Fit Life. What started as a casual conversation about sobriety turned into a powerful story of transformation that needed to be shared. Becca opens up about quitting drinking in her late twenties while working in the alcohol industry, how she discovered the concept of sober curiosity before she even knew what it was called, and why her version of "rock bottom" didn't look like what most people expect. She shares candidly about managing OCD and trauma, and why she's grateful she made this change before becoming a mom. This is a story about curiosity, self-honesty, and the courage to question everything you thought was normal.
