I think a lot to think about, and I just love that you didn't have to ruin your life before you realized I am ready to embrace a sober way of living and you are a great role model for all of us.
Imagine being a triathlete, a coach, and a mother, all while hiding a secret struggle with alcohol. That's the story of Susanne Navas, who joins Maureen Ross Gemme on 'Emerge. Evolve. Lead.' to share her transformative journey. Susanne, a wellness coach and yoga instructor, realized that her drinking was at odds with her healthy lifestyle and the values she wanted to instill in her children. She decided to stop drinking to better align with her values and improve her health.
Now, over five years sober, she’s thriving in ways she never thought possible. In this episode, Susanne opens up about the cognitive dissonance she experienced – the clash between knowing alcohol's harms and still consuming it. She talks about the pivotal moment when she decided enough was enough, and how that decision has impacted her life and leadership. Susanne discusses building healthy habits, developing coping skills, and the significance of role models who live alcohol-free.
Listeners will find inspiration in Susanne's candid discussion of the challenges and triumphs of sobriety. She also delves into how embracing a sober lifestyle has allowed her to step into leadership roles, both personally and professionally. Susanne’s story is a powerful reminder that overcoming addiction can lead to profound personal growth and the ability to lead others by example.
