S2: Ep: 1 - Tapping into Sobriety with Clemmie Telford

Season #2 Episode #1

I'm delighted to bring you this conversation with Clemmie Telford on Sobriety. I am on my own alcohol free journey so I was keen to explore this topic with Clemmie, who is coming up to 2 years alcohol free. 

Key takeaways:

  • Why Clemmie gave up alcohol
  • Alcohol creep & the rise of alcohol related deaths
  • Sobriety as an act of rebellion
  • The language of sobriety
  • Alcohol forces emotions to pop up elsewhere
  • How sobriety is impacting her relationship
  • The benefits of giving up alcohol
