Tribe Sober - Your guide to alcohol-free living!
After running Tribe Sober for 5 years and helping hundreds of people to ditch the drink and embrace alcohol-free living I've learned a thing or two. My biggest insight has been that sharing our stories around alcohol is the most powerful way we can help others - that's why the heart of this podcast is recovery stories.
However in this brand new series we are also interviewing some experts - we've got a doctor, a psychiatrist, a professor, a journalist - and this week we get to meet author and sobriety advocate Ken Middleton
In this Episode
- Ken explains that when he became an entrepreneur he decided to "give it his all" by ditching the drink and putting in 100% effort
- His thinking behind this decision was that alcohol wasn't ruining his life, but it WAS preventing him from developing his potential
- He was planning to take a break from alcohol but once he started experiencing the benefits he decided to continue
- We talked about the "work hard, play hard culture" that prevails in many corporates - and how will catch up with you eventually
- The science tells us that after a couple of decades of heavy drinking many of us will become dependent
- We agreed we should never wait until he hit "rock bottom" - it makes far more sense to step off the slippery slope while you can
- Ken explained how his travel routine changed when he stopped drinking - rather than staying in a bar he actually explored the city!
- He wants others to discover how to thrive in alcohol free life and writes regularly for Medium
- He has his own newsletter and is writing a book
- You can read his article about the science of why you should quit drinking HERE
- You can subscribe to his newsletter - Alcohol is Not Your Friend HERE
