“January makes it four years sober for me, after I finally accepted that my all-or-nothing personality meant that I could never moderate my drinking.  I swapped the three-day-hangovers and constant blackout nights for a life of real experiences and joy.  The only regret I have is that I wasted so many years boozing! 

 Although many things changed when I stopped drinking, all of them were for the better.  I replaced drinking buddies with real friendships and more time with my loved ones, who were no longer terrified that I’d die before my 40th birthday.  I had my daughter, which meant I got to experience love as I never have before, and became CEO for a charity that I’m really passionate about.

One of the things I love most about sobriety is it’s the real rebel’s choice.  If you have the courage to choose a different path in life, I promise it will reward you beyond what you can ever imagine.”
