Here's To Change

Show Notes

Here’s to more energy, better sleep, positivity, and health - here’s to a mindful drinking movement - here’s to change!

This week's guest is the Irish award winning novelist Liz Nugent, author of six hugely successful novels. Her latest title, The Truth About Ruby Cooper, centres around the lead character who is an alcoholic. But today we are here to talk to Liz about her personal story, and it is fascinating. Five years ago, Liz gave up alcohol in solidarity with her husband, who sought help and support when his relationship with alcohol became unmanageable.

This is a story of triumph and hope and a reminder that there is so much help and support out there for those who want it. Enjoy.
