Uninterrupted

Show Notes

Alcohol had long been a part of Danni Carr’s world, from her early days growing up in central Victoria to her career as a gigging musician. Over the years, drinking impacted so many areas of her life – until one day she decided to team up with her husband and friends to go sober together. And it changed everything. Now, Danni uses her lived experience to help others, both through her work as a sober coach and as the host of the podcast How I Quit Alcohol. In this episode, I chat to Danni about her sobriety journey and the confronting moment that sparked a change. Plus, she gives practical strategies for addressing our relationship with alcohol, becoming a more mindful drinker, and navigating the sober – or sober curious – life.
