Show Notes
On this SoberFitGirl episode, Kathryn and Ewa sit down with Kristen Bear, the founder of Creative Sobriety, who opens up about her journey to sobriety and the challenges that came with it.
Kristen got sober in February of 2020, but the path wasn’t easy. She shares honestly about what stopped working, the emotional and mental hurdles she faced after removing alcohol, and what surprised her most about early sobriety. From identity shifts to learning how to sit with discomfort, this conversation goes beyond the highlight reel and into the real work of staying sober.
Kristen also reflects on how sobriety gave her the space to re-evaluate her life, relationships, and patterns — and how choosing not to drink ultimately became the most transformative decision she’s ever made.
This episode is for anyone who’s sober, sober-curious, or in the thick of it — wondering if the struggle is worth it, and needing reassurance that it truly does get better.
