ABOUT
MY STORY
Discovering the Sober Edit started with an Instagram handle, a space I created to connect with a community embracing an alcohol-free life. It's still me, just liberated from the challenges that alcohol brought into my life. This sober version of myself is where I truly found freedom. I've moved past the hangovers and anxiety, the toxic conversations, and inexcusable behaviour. No more regrets, no more shame, no more guilt! Choosing a life without alcohol was challenging, but it stands as the most empowering decision I've ever made.
Navigating sobriety initially felt very lonely. I was the only person in my circle making this profound shift, and discussing my alcohol-free journey while friends indulged made it even more challenging.
I immersed myself in podcasts, devoured "quit lit", and meticulously crafted my own toolkit—strategies that empowered me to stay steadfast in my commitment. This toolkit wasn't just about saying 'no' to a drink; it was about saying 'yes' to self-care. I invested the money I used to spend on alcohol into skincare products, candles, new fitness gear, and jewelry that celebrated my milestones and reminded me of the ground I was gaining each day.
Now, it's time for me to share this toolkit with you. I've curated a tangible collection of resources and self-care treasures to guide you on your path to recovery. Imagine a subscription box, arriving bi-monthly, filled with tools for recovery, items for self-nurturing, and symbols of the progress you've made. Begin your journey today and embrace your own sober edit.
