Kate started drinking at 14, and it would take decades before she realized there had to be more to life.

Kate started drinking at 14, and it would take decades before she realized there had to be more to life.

In this episode of the Sober Motivation podcast, I chat with Kate about her journey from childhood to adulthood fueled by heavy drinking, to her decision to choose a sober life. The discussion uncovers Kate's upbringing in a large London household and her early 20s described as a 'constant party', and her later relationship with alcohol, which led her to question her real identity and purpose in life. Eventually, these reflections triggered a transformation, with Kate finally embracing a sober lifestyle and reshaping her life in the process. Kate shares practical tips and recounts how she used journaling, walking outdoors, and interacting with others on a similar path to help her stay the course.
