In this inspiring episode, Janet talks with Sarah, known online as the “Sober Sherpa”, about her journey from teenage drinking, to a “work hard, play hard” corporate lifestyle, to finally embracing the freedom of sobriety.
Sarah shares how the COVID lockdown became a turning point, helping her finally step away from alcohol after years of trying to moderate. She opens up about the tools that helped her succeed, the unexpected benefits of life without booze, and how she’s now using her passion for adventure to help others in their recovery through the Sober Adventure Collective.
In this episode:-
How Sarah’s drinking started young and became tied to her identity and success
The moment she realized her drinking could cost her the career she’d worked so hard to build
How an online 12-week recovery program and “This Naked Mind” changed her perspective on alcohol
The surprising emotional freedom and confidence that came with sobriety
Why adding new passions and connections is just as important as removing alcohol
How the Sober Adventure Collective helps people heal through nature, movement, and connection
Why helping others in recovery has become one of the most meaningful parts of her journey
