She Couldn’t Imagine Quitting—Then Sobriety Changed Everything

from Sobriety Snippets for Women Over 40 - Alcohol-Free Living with Soul, Smarts, and a Sense of Humor · host Becca Jacobson

Sobriety and self discovery can take you places you never expected to go.In this episode, Becca sits down with Anne, a therapist and former “functional drinker” who says she once couldn’t imagine quitting and genuinely loved to drink. Her story is a beautiful reminder that you don’t have to fit some dramatic picture of an alcohol problem to recognize that drinking has become compulsive and is keeping you stuck.Anne shares what happened when she finally stopped trying to moderate, joined Becca for Juicy January, and began doing the deeper work behind sobriety. She talks about realizing she had stagnated in her personal growth, uncovering old emotional wounds, learning to forgive, and discovering how much the support of other women mattered.You’ll also hear one wonderfully simple practice Anne brought home with her: creating a sacred space for reflection and self-care.If you’ve been wondering what can change beyond simply putting down the drink, settle in and hear Anne’s story. It might give you a glimpse of what’s waiting for you, too.Join the September cohort of Becca's transformational Perspectives Program and experience real and lasting change over the next 2 months. https://beccajacobson.com/perspectives/join 🎙️ Vote for The Snippets on SobrietyTalkRate and review the Snippets and help other women find their way here.
