Alcohol Free Coach
I’m an alcohol-free coach, and after nearly 30 years of drinking, I finally quit for good on the 22nd November 2022. If you’re thinking about taking a break or quitting alcohol but don’t know how — I’m here to help.
I started drinking at 14, which unfortunately led to other substances, and I battled addiction for most of my adult life. Looking back, I was likely self-medicating to avoid facing the trauma of childhood abuse, something I’ve only recently addressed through therapy. As a high-functioning heavy drinker, I never considered myself an alcoholic, which made it even harder to change.
For years, I tried to quit on my own. My first attempt was a Dry January in 2013, but on February 1st, I drank a month’s worth of alcohol in one night. Then came Sober October, which ended in a blackout on November 2nd. That’s when I knew I needed more than just a month off — I needed a real change.
At one point, I committed to a 12-month alcohol-free challenge in 2018, and after about 100 restarts, I finally completed a full year sober. But I made the classic mistake of thinking I was “cured” and wasted the next few years struggling with moderation, falling back into old patterns.
Eventually, I reached a breaking point. Even though I had a great family, a home, and a steady job, I was in a dark place mentally. I was trapped — desperate to quit but unable to. My health had deteriorated. I was diagnosed with diabetes and gout and put on lifetime medication. I had ballooned to my heaviest weight of 22 stone.
But everything changed when I stopped looking for a way to control alcohol and started focusing on freeing myself from it. I educated myself, read the books, listened to the podcasts, and completely rewired my mindset.
Now, I don’t miss alcohol — not even 1%. Life is so much better without it. I’ve reversed chronic diseases, lost weight, and completely transformed my health and mindset. And I can help you do the same.
