From Binge Drinking Mom to Sober Traveler: A Sobriety Story

from One for the Road: The Quit Drinking Podcast

Kate Renninson spent decades as the one who would drink everyone under the table and wore it like a badge of honor. This is a sobriety story that so many women will recognize. Growing up with a difficult mother who never showed her warmth, Kate found that alcohol gave her the attention and acceptance she craved. She carried that into marriage, motherhood, and the whole mummy wine culture of Sunday roasts and bottomless brunches, blacking out almost every time she went out and waking up to dread and sticky weed on her dress. Everything changed when she picked up Clare Pooley's Sober Diaries off a stranger's wall in Wimbledon and read it on a trip to Dubrovnik. She got on the flight home knowing something was different and has not looked back since. Now over four years sober, Kate says she finally feels calm, content, and like she is actually seeing the world for the first time.https://www.instagram.com/detoxikated/If you want to connect with me via Instagram, you can find me on the instahandle @Soberdave https://www.instagram.com/soberdave/or via my website https://davidwilsoncoaching.com/Provided below are links for services offering additional help and advice.www.drinkaware.co.uk/advice/alcohol-support-serviceshttps://nacoa.org.uk/Show producer- Daniella Attanasio-MartinezInstagram - @TheDaniellaMartinezhttps://www.instagram.com/thedaniellamartinez/www.instagram.com/grownuphustle Hosted on Acast.
