Danielle started drinking alcohol at 14 years old and from the beginning was always looking forward to the next opportunity to drink alcohol. Sep 27, 2023

Show notes

In this episode, we have Danielle (AKA @thatsoberglow), who had her first sip of alcohol at 14 years old and couldn’t wait for the next opportunity to drink. Alcohol seemed to make life a bit easier and help her operate without her personal insecurities holding her back. During this time, she was also a mover and shaker involved in many things in life, and this would be a common theme. She did an incredible job of keeping things together on the outside, but internally, there was a battle raging that no one knew about. Getting and staying sober would provide so many benefits and much-needed clarity in her life. This is Danielle’s story on the Sober Motivation podcast

Show notes

Jodi grew up in an environment where alcohol was prevalent, so seeing this while growing up, it felt normal to her. When she turned 17 and moved out on her own, she continued the tradition of wine drinking. Always the life of the party, it was difficult for her to resist what she had considered such a good time for so long. Jodi was a go-getter in life, always managing to keep it together just enough to prevent everything from falling apart. As she grew older, alcohol seemed to consistently be a part of her life. When she became a mother, life became even more stressful, and wine became the answer until it became the question. Could her life be better without it?

From Struggles to Strength: Benjamin Lerner’s Journey to Sobriety Sep 19, 2023

Show notes

In this episode, we have Benjamin Lerner, who has been sober since June 13, 2016. Ever since he can remember, Ben did not feel comfortable in his own skin, and alcohol and drugs would help him loosen up. After dropping out of college at 20 years old, Ben got his first DUI, and his one thought in that moment was that if he were arrested, he would not be able to drink or use that day, and that’s all that mattered. Throughout the years, Ben’s addiction progressed, and he found himself in situations he always told himself he would never end up in. This is Benjamin’s story on the Sober Motivation podcast.

Mailinn narrowly escaped death from alcoholism. With over Sober 3 years now she is a true miracle. Sep 06, 2023

Show notes

Mailinn Hamre began drinking at the age of 13, and by the time she turned 18, things took a dramatic turn as it became the legal age to purchase beer in Norway. Initially, she started drinking to fit in with her friends, and the consequences of her actions didn't become apparent until some time had passed. She found herself becoming dependent on the escape that alcohol provided.

As the years went by, her situation worsened, and she ended up consuming up to 17 litres of beer or 4 litres of vodka per day. She mentioned feeling that her body was deteriorating, and her doctor confirmed this grim reality by simply wishing her well and stating that there was no need for another appointment the following year, as her prognosis was bleak. The thought of a life without alcohol was unimaginable for her.

After enduring many months of illness, Mailinn was placed into a coma that lasted for three months. Today, we celebrate a true miracle on the show, as she has been three years sober.
