    *** This episode contains references to and conversation around suicide***Today, I chat with Sharon Ledwith from Galway about her incredibly transformative journey to living an alcohol free life. Sharon shares her thoughts on 927-days without alcohol, remembering the ups and downs that led to her decision. Turns out that myself and Sharon actually met 21 years ago at a house party in Bondi Beach, Sydney - a meeting that neither of us can clearly remember! Sharon reflects on her early relationship with alcohol, the cultural connections around drinking in Ireland and the emotional challenges that often follow. She discusses sensitive topics, including suicide and the impact of loss and grief on mental health, highlighting the vital link between alcohol use and emotional coping. Sharon draws on her experiences to inspire you and others, talking about how difficult it is to step in a new identity, the personal growth that comes with this life change and the deeply profound empowerment that's found in alcohol-free living. Enjoy!Sharon is the founder of Ledwith Wellness. After losing her brother to suicide and facing her own mental health struggles, she made a decision to heal from the inside out. Now she helps others do the same through emotional healing, nervous system regulation, hypnotherapy and energy work so they can move out of survival mode and finally feel calm, connected and free again.Ledwith Wellnes - Live Life on Point - Ledwith Wellness by Sharon Ledwith If you have been adversely affected by the content of this conversation please refer to Pieta Houses WebsitePieta | Preventing Suicide and Self-Harm since 2006

  • Embracing Sober Life: Lessons from Lily Shanks
    In this episode of No More Booze,I welcome Lily Shanks from Dallas, Texas. Lily opens up about her journey from heavy drinking to sobriety, sharing details that led her to seek help on September 3, 2018. Lily talks about her early relationship with alcohol, how it initially seemed like an escape from her insecurities and the pivotal moments that made her realise alcohol wasn’t the solution, leading to her transformative path toward healing and self-discovery. Lily has just celebrated 7 years of sobriety. On the outside, she was a “functional” attorney who "had it all." On the inside, her world was dark and stormy. It never occurred to her that alcohol was the problem ... until it suddenly did.Through her recovery, she discovered that alcohol was both her problem and her solution to not feeling comfortable in her own skin. She had to develop ways to find fulfillment and serenity – beyond work, success, and alcohol. Today, Lily’s a certified life coach, certified yoga instructor, sobriety coach, and the founder of My Internal Weather (www.myinternalweather.com). She works with clients who have been chasing love and self-worth in all the wrong places – work, material possessions, food, relationships and/or at the bottom of a bottle – and helps them create more authentic, meaningful, serene lives.To learn more about Lily, visit www.myinternalweather.com or reach out to Lily at [email protected].
