Sarah Rusbatch and her incredible journey!

Not Drinking (Alcohol) Today Podcast

Embarking on an introspective expedition, we're joined by the insightful Health and Wellbeing Coach, Sarah Rustbatch, who shares a candid narrative of her personal evolution from the grips of teenage drinking to the liberation of sobriety. Her story is set against the backdrop of Northern England's culture where alcohol is woven into the fabric of social bonding, from school years to the professional world. As we traverse Sarah's experiences, you're invited to contemplate the profound impact of cultural expectations on our choices and the courage it takes to break free from them.
With raw vulnerability, Sarah unfolds the chapters of her life that led her from being the life of the party to a beacon of hope as a sober coach. The conversation journeys through the landscapes of London's demanding corporate scene to the life-altering move to Perth, where the challenges of starting a family and isolation catalysed a pivotal transformation in her relationship with alcohol. Sarah's revelation and subsequent path to sobriety are not just her story—they reflect a silent struggle faced by many, offering a beacon of hope and a roadmap for those navigating similar crossroads.
Concluding our episode is a celebration of Sarah's triumph in authorship, "Beyond Booze: How to Create a Life You Love Alcohol-Free," a testament to the rich, fulfilling existence that awaits beyond the haze of alcohol. Her book embodies the essence of self-discovery and personal growth that sobriety can ignite, especially when faced with a partner who drinks or the pursuit of joy and purpose in the sober life. Sarah's journey—echoed in her words and in her book—is an invitation to all listeners to explore the depths of their own strength and the beauty of a life unchained from societal norms.
