Happy New Year and I am so glad you are here! My name is Sarah, and I am sober woman; a wife; a mother....my alcohol misuse took me to very dark places over the course of my life. It wasn't always that way. But towards the end of my love affair with alcohol, I lost all control. I needed help. I was ashamed and embarrassed that I could not control drinking on my own. I did not know how to live with...

Being sick (with maybe covid) can't keep me from offering a dose of hope. 

Hello everyone! Thank you for joining me today for a daily dose of hope that I promise I will try my best to offer you every day leading up to the New Year (and perhaps longer if it helps you!). In this episode, I share how being vulnerable and sharing honestly (and not hurting ourselves our others in the process) no matter what we are feeling, always helps me feel more spiritually fit.  We a...

In this episode I try to refrain from saying "Like and Um" and talk about how other things that might be useful to you. 

Learn how I thought I was unique and that I was the first to realize that there is nobody on Discord in the recovery community.  a tongue in cheek type episode. Short and maybe boring. I will let you decide. 

Hi my friends! I'm so glad you are here and hope you are well.  I have started a FREE discord account (yes, DISCORD is another social media app) called Drinking Sobriety. If you'd like to join this group to talk anything alcohol, alcohol use or mis use or overuse or hard, average or awesome sobriety, you can join this discord community anonymously or not. Your choice.  It's just me who is on there...

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope this episode gives you peace and inspiration. We don't have to drink today.  If you are struggling, accept help. There is an easier softer way. There is a solution. 

No human power got me sober. I had to get to a place of complete desperation. The progression of my disease was a slow one. I stopped and started constantly. I tried so many different ways to control my drinking on my own. I tried to read things or watch documentaries that would co-sign my wish that I did not have a problem. I would seek out others who drank more than me so that I could find relie...

In this Bonus Episode, I share about how getting sober and doing the work beyond putting down the drink has given me the courage to do things that I used to avoid out of fear of inability or fear of failure.  I also talk about an upcoming virtual event for Mrs. Wilson's treatment Center in Morristown, NJ. I will be the MC of this special event with keynote speaker Lisa Boucher, sober over 30 years...

Getting sober happened for me because I trusted my gut and I tried a new way to stay stopped.  Insanity: doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.  You can reach me at Contact | Sober Gratitudes or you can DM me on my Instagram account: Sober Gratitudes Podcast🎈 (@sober_gratitudes_podcast) • Instagram photos and videos

Kicking off Season 3 with the truth about how I healed from the inside out. How I am in a recovered state & relieved of the bondage of self. In my experience, True Sobriety is an inside job.  Disclaimer: Sober Gratitudes, its host and guests do not represent or promote any form of recovery. 

My Labor Day weekend kicked off with getting progressive glasses for my aging sober eyes.  Holiday weekends and staying sober in early sobriety can suck. But it doesn't have to.  I'm so glad you are here. Let's hang out this weekend. Let me know and we'll zoom.  Email: sobergratitudes@gmail.com Instagram @sober_gratitudes_podcast 

We are so glad you are here! How was your summer? Mackenzie and I share about how our summer's were and how they looked nothing like we expected because we didn't have any expectations! 

In today's episode, I share about how I learned that feeling sadness is ok and that holding onto those feelings negatively impacts people around me. Essentially, I become irritable, distant, and bitchy with others.  I am grateful I can honor my feelings and calmly share with my loved ones how I am feeling with out hurting them in the process.  What feelings are you holding onto today?  You don’t h...

I decided to share some thoughts on this saturday night- August 21, 9 years and 1 day sober - about how getting sober can have a huge impact on a marriage/romantic relationships.
