    • Alternatieve gezondheid

In this episode of "Sober Stories from Everyday People" podcast, listeners are introduced to the podcasts first sober husband and wife team, Alisha and Ricci, team from West London who are navigating their journey through sobriety. With a combined 650 days of sobriety, they share their powerful stories of transformation and newfound freedom from alcohol.
Alisha opens up about her upbringing, where alcohol was normalized due to her father's struggles with alcoholism. Growing up, she found herself in environments where drinking was prevalent, but these were normalised because everything was doing it. On the other hand, Ricci had a different path, not delving much into drinking until his mid teens, where a negative experience made him steer clear of alcohol until his early 20s.
Their lives took a turn when, after years of social drinking and drinking to relax at home as parents, Ricci decided to attend an AA meeting and make the courageous decision to quit alcohol. A few weeks later, Alisha followed suit, and they embarked on a transformative journey together.
During the podcast, they reflect on how sobriety has positively impacted their lives, their relationship, and their roles as parents to three sons. They highlight the challenges they faced, the support they received from each other and their community, and the joy they discovered in living alcohol-free.
Additionally, Alisha and Ricci discuss their passion project, the "Black and Sober Podcast," where they amplify stories of sobriety, especially within the Black community. They aim to inspire others and create a space of hope, peace, and empowerment for those seeking a sober lifestyle.
