  • Episode 8: Didi's very 1st interview that she was tricked into over a year ago by her good friend Jo Gibb
    Sep 6 2024

    Talk about being thrown into the deep end!!

    Today's episode features a surprise recording of what was meant to be the very first episode of The Sober Chapters Podcast over a year ago when I was only 13 months into my Sober Chapter. In this episode my good friend Jo Gibb helped me confront my fears head-on by tricking me into my first ever interview.

    We dive into my early encounters with alcohol, the highs and lows of partying, and the realisation that a sober chapter was the key to unlocking immense personal growth and freedom. This raw and emotional conversation captures the essence of my early struggles, shedding light on the origins of the Sober Chapters and this podcast.

    Throughout this episode, we take a deep look at the pivotal moments that led to my sober chapter. From initial steps in 2017-2018, influenced by personal development gurus like Tony Robbins and spiritual guides such as Gabby Bernstein, to the cycles of mindful drinking and hangovers, every phase brought new lessons.

    We also discuss how symbolic signs and spiritual guidance, including the recurring number 69, played a crucial role in reinforcing my commitment to a sober lifestyle.

    We discuss the profound impact of sobriety on various aspects of life and how removing alcohol significantly boosts productivity and motivation at work, leading to increased earnings and opportunities for self-investment in areas like coaching and personal development.

    There are so many juicy topics covered in this special episode including my patterns I was stuck in with the opposite sex as well as sober dating.

    Aug 9 2024

    Ever wondered how radically your life could change by giving up alcohol? Faye Louise from Sydney joins us to share her transformative sobriety journey. With a blend of humor and heartfelt introspection, she opens up about her early drinking habits that began as a plea for her father’s attention post-divorce and how this escalated through her university days and 20s leading to regular blackout drinking and feelings of shame.

    The turning point came after a wild trip to Dubai, when she decided to take a six-month break from alcohol. Faye is now 17 months sober and excited about the possibilities of sobriety in her 30s.

    Faye discusses how her friendships have changed since she stopped drinking alcohol and how people reacted to her sobriety as well as how she has found more enjoyment and self-love in her sober life.

    Together, Faye and I explore the fresh, vibrant world of sober socialising. We talk about the initial shock from friends and followers, the shedding of the "party girl" identity, and the unexpected joy of nights out without alcohol.

    Faye also talks about her plans for the future, including creating a program that combines sobriety and self-love, and organising meetups for sober and sober-curious individuals in Sydney. You can find Faye Louise on instagram @fayelouise_____
