In this enlightening pop-up episode of Recovery Happy Hour, host Tricia Lewis dives into the evolving landscape of sobriety, discussing key topics such as long-term sobriety, recovery coaching, and the growing trend of mocktails and zero-proof drinks. Tricia shares her personal journey, marking nearly nine years of being alcohol-free since November 2016, and reflects on the challenges and triumphs she has faced along the way.
She emphasizes the importance of finding a supportive community and reputable recovery coaching to navigate the complexities of sobriety. As the wellness industry continues to grow, Tricia highlights the need for caution in choosing coaches, noting the proliferation of quick online certifications that may not be as thorough as accredited training. The episode also touches on the cultural shift towards sober living, with new studies and products emerging in the market.
Tricia discusses the ease with which wellness enthusiasts can become influential figures, sometimes leading to misguided trust. Guest appearances by Heather Lowe and Tawny Lara add depth to the discussion, particularly around the challenges of recovering publicly and the responsibilities that come with being a recovery influencer. Additionally, Tricia stresses the need for informed consent regarding alcohol's effects, a topic that remains under-discussed despite significant research.
She encourages listeners to revisit past episodes for fresh insights and underscores the value of revisiting old content as one's understanding evolves. Balancing her work at a Pilates studio with volunteer efforts, Tricia shares her fulfilling lifestyle, highlighting the importance of service and community in her sobriety journey. With a heartfelt thank you to her guests and listeners, she closes the episode with encouragement to continue celebrating life beyond the bottle.
