In this episode, Danni catches up with Liz from Melbourne, who once turned to alcohol to relieve stress and escape the pain of an unhappy marriage. Drinking a bottle a day, she eventually reached a breaking point and knew something had to change.
Now 17 months sober, Liz recently attended one of the How I Quit Alcohol retreats. She opens up about the challenges that sobriety can bring, including how quitting can sometimes create tension in relationships, and shares how putting herself first and working with a great therapist have been key parts of her journey.

If you are struggling with physical dependancy on alcohol consider contacting a local AA meeting or a drug and alcohol therapist. Always consult a GP before stopping alcohol.
