The Sober Rebel — Alternative Health
The Sober Rebel

Some people think that being sober is boring, they may even think that if you have to go alcohol free you’ve somehow drawn the short straw in life.

But what if it isn’t anything like that? What if it’s the best thing you could ever do to level up your relationships, your mental and physical health or even your life?

In this podcast Louisa talks to her fabulous sober guests about the joys of the sober life, the fun things they’ve noticed and the amazing things they’ve tried or done since ditching the booze that they’d never have done as a drinker.

These aren’t stories about how people got sober… they’re stories about why they enjoy staying sober.

Meg on Intuition, Trusting Herself and Being Okay with the Peace Jun 25, 2024

Show notes

Feeling tired of the daily 'detox to retox' loop that Meg found herself in with alcohol, she decided to do something about it but it wasn't an instant fix as you'll hear in this episode. Along the way she uncovered so many intoxicating lies about alcohol that she even went on to write a book about it.

Now she is nearly 5 years sober and embraces how connected she feels in sobriety, how she is now listening to her intuition and has found a way to really be okay with the peace that surrounds her rather than the hustle and grind she used to know.

Embracing happiness, feeling proud and making so many new memories are Ste's three benefits alongside so many other things that are discussed in this interview.

Nik on More Time, Feeling Connected and Facing Things May 28, 2024

Show notes

In this conversation with Nik, it's really clear how one path to sobriety is not the same as the next. Nik's route to finding the sober life wasn't a straight forward one, as it often isn't, but he attributes it to changing so many areas of his life and also to how he approaches things.

From having more time to get things done, feeling more authentic and more connected with his loved ones as well as facing things head on and not avoiding them. He is thoroughly enjoying what being clear headed and present is bringing to his life.

Justin on Health, Rethinking His Diet and Spirituality May 14, 2024

Show notes

Justin is simply a ball of positive energy who turned his life completely on its head when he went sober nearly a decade ago. From being an extremely social drinker for most of his younger years to finding himself alcohol dependant over a period of months, his story really shows how quickly things can descend.

In this episode he covers so many benefits to sobriety that he has noticed in that time but in particular how it's impacted how he interacts with the world from a spiritual perspective, his diet and his health.

This episode does come with a warning to always seek medical advice if you are at all concerned that you could be alcohol dependant before attempting to stop drinking.

Emily | Relationships, Health and How She Views Herself Apr 30, 2024

Show notes

Listen in as Louisa catches up with Emily who credits her sobriety with changing so many things in her life that it was difficult to pick out just three.

Emily is such a ball of positive sober energy but by her own admission she wasn't always like that when alcohol was a part of her life. From struggling with Mummy Wine Culture in the past to now embracing sober dating, self development and viewing herself in a totally different light... this is an amazing look at how many different things change when you go sober.
