About this episode
We’re kicking off World Mental Health Month with the author of ‘The Unexpected Joy of Being Sober’, Catherine Gray. 11 years ago, Catherine had a ‘raging alcohol addiction’, but since her recovery, she’s become an integral voice to help people go sober every day. In this episode, she joins Dr Alex George to share her key lessons and the tips she’d offer to the sober curious. In part 1, Catherine shares the anxiety she had around being alcohol-free, the reasons why she couldn’t just cut down her intake and the personal transformation that has come with putting the bottle down. Catherine also shares her thoughts on whether you must hit rock bottom before you stop.
