*** This episode contains references to and conversation around suicide***

Today, I chat with Sharon Ledwith from Galway about her incredibly transformative journey to living an alcohol free life. Sharon shares her thoughts on 927-days without alcohol, remembering the ups and downs that led to her decision. Turns out that myself and Sharon actually met 21 years ago at a house party in Bondi Beach, Sydney - a meeting that neither of us can clearly remember! Sharon reflects on her early relationship with alcohol, the cultural connections around drinking in Ireland and the emotional challenges that often follow. She discusses sensitive topics, including suicide and the impact of loss and grief on mental health, highlighting the vital link between alcohol use and emotional coping. Sharon draws on her experiences to inspire you and others, talking about how difficult it is to step in a new identity, the personal growth that comes with this life change and the deeply profound empowerment that's found in alcohol-free living. Enjoy!

Sharon is the founder of Ledwith Wellness. After losing her brother to suicide and facing her own mental health struggles, she made a decision to heal from the inside out. Now she helps others do the same through emotional healing, nervous system regulation, hypnotherapy and energy work so they can move out of survival mode and finally feel calm, connected and free again.
