Recovery Nutrition with Lindsey Beveridge

Recovery Nutrition with Lindsey Beveridge

Ever met someone who turned their life around and now helps others do the same? That's Lindsey Beveridge for you. In this episode of Tribe Sober, Janet sits down with Lindsey, a nutritionist who once struggled with alcohol herself. They first crossed paths seven years ago at a 'how to quit drinking' workshop in London, both hungover and grumpy. Fast forward to today, they're both seven years sober and dedicated to helping others thrive in their alcohol-free lives.

Lindsey opens up about her teenage years when she used alcohol for confidence, a habit that spiraled into dependency as she grew older. By age 47, she was taking 'Are You an Alcoholic?' quizzes and realizing she ticked all the boxes. Fearful for her life and the well-being of her young daughter, Lindsey decided it was time for a change.

Now a qualified nutritionist, Lindsey uses a functional medicine approach to help people make lasting changes to their diet and lifestyle. She believes in addressing the root causes of unhealthy behaviors rather than just treating the symptoms. Throughout the episode, Lindsey and Janet discuss how nutrition can play a pivotal role in recovery. They dive into the effects of alcohol on the body and the incredible benefits of sobriety. One key takeaway? You don't have to do it alone.

Both Lindsey and Janet emphasize the importance of having a supportive community, like Tribe Sober, to help you on your journey. They share personal stories and practical tips for maintaining sobriety, underscoring the value of self-awareness and informed health choices. Lindsey sums it up perfectly: 'Our bodies and brains are always trying to heal. And that makes it a little bit easier to keep going, because you think, wow, I do actually feel quite a lot better'.

If you're seeking inspiration, practical advice, and a sense of community on your path to sobriety, this episode is a must-listen.
