The Hello Someday Podcast For Sober Curious Women
Health & Fitness:Mental Health
Today my guest on the podcast is my very own sober coach.
Belle Robertson from Tired Of Thinking About Drinking was the person I emailed on my very last “Day 1” 5 years ago, after I woke up at 3am and decided that I needed support to stop drinking wine every night.
After that first day, and over the course of 2 years, Belle and I exchanged over 800 email messages!
Belle held my hand through my first week without alcohol and gave me advice and support as I navigated dinner parties, crappy days at work, date nights, sick kids, camping trips and my first sober vacation in Europe.
I love Belle's approach because it's practical, approachable and positive.
When I started working with her I heard this message - and it set me on the path I’m still walking today.
She said, “So I want you to imagine that there's something else for you, something better than what you're doing now. I want you to think about what could be rather than what is. So if there's a you who right now is a person who's drinking, and you want to be something else, and you want something else to happen in your life, and you don't know how to get there. And you don't know how to get this voice in your head to stop. I know what the answer is. I know that you don't believe me when I tell you I know what the answer is. Because the answer is stop drinking. And when you stop drinking, things change.”
In this episode, Belle and I discuss:
