    Ditching the Drink with Heather Lowe

    Fellow Wisconsinite and sober coach Heather Lowe loved the way alcohol made her feel from a very young age. She kept her fears that she might have a problematic relationship with alcohol under wraps for decades, until a flurry of life changes and tragedies led to her begin to ‘drink her grief’ instead of feeling it.  Heather wanted to blame everything but alcohol for the ways in which she felt like she was losing her grip, so much so that she began to try ‘sober experiments’ to prove to herself that alcohol wasn’t the problem. She was surprised to find, though, that she was feeling better and better during her periods of sobriety. Quitting for real felt terrifying. A longtime party girl, Heather couldn’t imagine losing friends through such a big life change. The honest truth was that she did lose friends, but she developed a much more important friendship along the way - a deep and meaningful friendship with herself.  Now seven years sober, Heather works with women in all stages of sobriety to help them navigate their own sober journeys. She wants you to know: There is so much potential in sobriety. Give yourself the chance!  Learn more about Heather:  www.ditchedthedrink.com Instagram  Are you craving a community in sobriety?

    Navigating Family Dynamics in Sobriety with Real Sober Mom Jennifer

    Today’s Real Sober Mom, Jennifer, is celebrating one year of sobriety! To celebrate, she is coming full circle and telling her story here on the podcast after feeling so supported by other women who have shared their stories in the same space.  Alcohol found its way into Jennifer’s life through her older brother, and as they became adults a culture of partying became central to her family dynamic. This family dynamic weaved its way through her relationship with alcohol, even as she navigated liver issues in her twenties and cancer in her thirties.  Jennifer began to question her relationship with alcohol after she completed treatment for colon cancer. Once she realized that she was a ‘gray area drinker’ she began to explore quit lit and hired a sober coach, but it took some time for sobriety to fully ‘click’ for her. The Sober Mom Life community served as a major turning point for Jennifer as she realized for the first time that she wasn’t alone.  With a year of sobriety under her belt, Jennifer shares about how sobriety has impacted her family dynamic, and how finding new ‘tools’ to cope in place of alcohol has made all the difference in her life.  Are you craving a community in sobriety?
