The Gavin Sisters on Quitting Drinking, Autoimmune Disease + Plant-Based Healing

The Gavin Sisters, Sharon and Loretta, are a comedy double act, plant-based wellness coaches and the founders of the Detox Barn. They join Sober Dave on One for the Road to talk about quitting drinking together as two single mums after Sharon was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease that put her in a wheelchair at 30.Sharon was six weeks pregnant when she woke up with a chronic rash, then lost the ability to walk, dress herself, or get up off the sofa. Doctors put her on heavy immunosuppressant drugs and told her there was nothing else she could do. She and Loretta moved in together with their babies, gave up alcohol, went plant-based, and slowly rebuilt her health.Sharon is now off all medication and running again. Inside: gray area drinking, why moderation fails, the toxic marriage that triggered it, and the Detox Barn retreats they run in Suffolk and Portugal.Quitting drinking, autoimmune disease, plant-based healing, gray area drinking.www.gavinsisters.co.ukInsta: @gavinsistersukTIKTOK:@gavinsistersFacebook: @TheDetoxBarnYou Tube: @gavingavinIf 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.
