Just think of the benefits and don't think of the sacrifice.
Imagine dropping a coin into a jar every day you resist the urge to drink. That's exactly what Jo from South Africa did, and it became a powerful symbol of her commitment to sobriety. In this episode of 'Sober Bliss', Gayle Macdonald chats with Jo about her inspiring journey from a busy mum struggling with alcohol to a proud advocate for sobriety.
Jo opens up about the drinking culture in South Africa, where a bottle of wine a day seemed normal, and how she finally realized it was anything but. She shares how she started a Facebook page called 'Coins in a Jar' to document her progress, finding motivation and accountability in each coin she added. Jo's story is a testament to the power of social support and self-care.
She talks about the challenges she faced, the benefits she gained, and the importance of celebrating every small victory. If you're looking for inspiration and practical tips on quitting drinking, Jo's journey is a must-listen.
