Giving up drink for me was the biggest act of self-love I could ever do ever, because I'm me and that's the good.
Picture this: you're at a crossroads, your life hanging in the balance after enduring unimaginable loss and personal breakdowns. That's where Lisa King found herself. In this episode of 'Steps to Sobriety', host Stephan Neff sits down with Lisa, an International Speaker and Bestselling Author, to uncover her powerful journey towards sobriety and self-love. Lisa's story is one of resilience and transformation.
After her partner's tragic suicide, she realized she had to make a pivotal choice—continue masking her pain with alcohol or embark on a path of true self-discovery. She chose herself. Lisa opens up about her early years, marked by trauma and a family history steeped in alcohol abuse. She candidly discusses how these experiences shaped her reliance on alcohol as a coping mechanism, leading to a tumultuous battle with addiction and mental health struggles.
The conversation also touches on the broader societal impacts of alcohol, especially in the UK where binge drinking is often seen as the norm.

From practicing mindfulness to engaging in regular exercise, Lisa highlights the importance of self-care and finding a supportive community.
Her story is a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with similar issues, proving that it's never too late to turn your life around. Lisa's commitment to self-love didn't just save her; it empowered her to inspire others. Her upcoming book and various resources aim to provide tools for those looking to embrace sobriety.
