028 TRIBE TALK - The Sober Diaries & Life In The Hot Lane with Clare Pooley

Ever wondered what happens when a wine-loving mum decides to quit drinking and ends up becoming a celebrated author? In this episode of TRIBE TALK, Emily Andrew sits down with the lively Clare Pooley to chat about her transformative journey. Clare, a fifty-year-old mother of three, decided to ditch the booze in 2015 after years of overindulgence.

What started as a personal blog, 'Mummy was a Secret Drinker', soon turned into a book, 'The Sober Diaries', which publishers have described as 'Bridget Jones Dries Out'. Clare's story doesn't stop there. She has since ventured into fiction writing, with her first novel, 'The Authenticity Project', being published in multiple countries. Now at fifty, Clare has returned to blogging, sharing her experiences of navigating life as a woman over forty-five.

In this heartfelt conversation, Clare opens up about the challenges and triumphs of sobriety, battling breast cancer, and the lessons she's learned along the way. She emphasizes the importance of vulnerability, cherishing experiences over material things, and the power of community. Clare's journey is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the beauty of finding your tribe. Tune in for an inspiring chat that promises to leave you feeling uplifted and motivated.
