So it has rewired my brain, I would say, because I really don't see myself going back to what I was. Not just for the people in my life, but just for me overall, just how it makes me feel.
Imagine navigating the complexities of life across three different continents while grappling with personal tragedies. Purvi Desai, a 39-year-old who grew up in Kenya and moved between the US and India, faced the heartbreaking experience of multiple miscarriages. These losses led her to seek solace in alcohol, but the impact on her family and marriage soon became too much to ignore.
In this episode of the Alcohol-Free Lifestyle podcast, Purvi opens up about her emotional journey from heavy drinking to a fulfilling, sober life. Hosted by James Swanwick, the conversation dives into the cultural pressures Purvi faced, especially within Indian communities where drinking can be a social expectation. She candidly discusses how these pressures compounded her struggles, making her path to sobriety even more challenging.
However, it was through the Project 90 program that Purvi found the support and structure she needed to reclaim her life. Listeners will find Purvi's story both relatable and inspiring as she talks about the turning points that motivated her to quit drinking. She emphasizes the importance of having a support system and how Project 90 provided her with the accountability she needed.
Her journey is a testament to the power of resilience and the transformative impact of taking control of one's relationship with alcohol. If you're looking for a story that combines personal struggle with triumph, this episode is a must-listen. Purvi's experiences offer valuable insights into overcoming cultural and personal barriers to achieve a healthier, alcohol-free lifestyle.
