Hello darling heart and to the drink less, live better podcast.

-:

This is the podcast that helps you to see that drinking less doesn't need to be stressful, lonely, or boring.

-:

I'm your host, Sarah Williamson, and I decided to have a year alcohol free as a little life experiment and haven't looked back.

-:

With my experience in training, I now help other people with their alcohol free or drink less adventures.

-:

You can find out more and sign up to my 5 day drink less challenge at drink less live better dot com.

-:

I'm here to tell you that you can relax, connect, and have fun without alcohol in your life.

-:

Join me here each week to find out how. Look.

-:

I'm here to talk to you about sober September.

-:

Of course, we have dry January, dry July, sober September, sober October, and they sound good. They trip off the tongue.

-:

I'm going to come back and share some thoughts on September, but before I do I'd like you to know this: Anytime. Anytime.

-:

Anytime at all is good for an extended break from alcohol.

-:

Any day on which you start and also the length of time you choose to go for.

-:

Any time is a good time without a drink.

-:

So with that said, why am I here to advocate for September in particular?

-:

Well, it's about the new season, the change of gear.

-:

In the northern hemisphere we're going to cool down soon and in the south you're going to start potting up.

-:

If perhaps you have drunk your way through the last season now is the perfect moment to reconsider what you want next.

-:

A break from alcohol is a physical, emotional, and spiritual gift to yourself, and that gift can be yours because you deserve

-:

better quality sleep, because your mood and concentration levels will be improved, because your anxiety and low level brain

-:

fog will lessen, because your energy levels will soar, because you know the harm alcohol is causing you, and perhaps you've

-:

been denying or pushing away these feelings for a while now.

-:

You deserve to live a life where you are true to yourself even if it makes others around you feel uncomfortable, because we

-:

only have one life, just this one precious time in this physical body.

-:

You know you are worthy of the time, energy and effort you're going to put into this sober month.

-:

You might have been alcohol free for a while or you might be new to this whole rodeo.

-:

Either way, committing is a positive and powerful choice to make. Choose sober September.

-:

You might have been interested or curious in the past, claim it now though.

-:

Move from interested to committed because you want to feel better about yourself, for yourself, and maybe for those around you too.

-:

As if by magic, I have my sober September program open for enrolment right now.

-:

The details are in the show notes, not on my website because I know enough people listen to the podcast not to have to worry

-:

about putting it on the web site this week.

-:

There are 5 places left, one has already gone.

-:

You will get a daily email every single day of this month with support.

-:

You will get 4 one to 1 coaching sessions with me, that's 1 a week at a time to suit you, you and I spending that hour together

-:

looking at what you really need to get out of your sober month.

-:

All that support, care and belief for one payment of £450.

About the Podcast

Drink Less; Live Better
Drinking Less isn't stressful, lonely or boring - let me show you the ways to relax, connect and have fun without alcohol in your life
THIS is the magic place where doubt, hope and action meet!

Let's find JOY and COLOUR on the other side of alcohol!

We don't have to hit rock bottom, we're allowed to want something different and we CAN choose to improve our lives from this point onwards. ​

Sarah was 40 and reconsidering her relationship with alcohol. ​ ​

She was tired and overwhelmed; she'd got a lot on her mind and a glass of wine or a G and T at the end of the day seemed like a treat or escape but... deep down she knew she wasn't doing herself any favours with this habit. ​ ​

Are you thinking about drinking less? ​ Sarah brings you tips, advice, motivation and believes that the changes we bring into our lives when we choose to be alcohol free are worth celebrating and shouting about (she also believes in YOU)!​

Sarah Williamson retired from drinking alcohol in 2019 and now uses her extensive coaching and mentoring experience to help and support others to do the same!
