Ready to take your first step toward an alcohol-free life? During the month of May, you can join the Reboot & Refresh: 30 Day Alcohol-Free Challenge for $20 off with the code MAY20. Inside the challenge, you’ll get daily videos, daily emails, a printable workbook, and a mindset journal to help you build momentum and confidence in your alcohol-free journey.

Episode Summary: In this episode of the No More Wasted Days podcast, Sara sits down with sobriety content creator Adriana Cavallo for a raw and honest conversation about addiction, recovery, and what happens when you stop numbing yourself with alcohol and weed.

Adriana shares her story of developing severe alcohol addiction while working in the restaurant industry, being hospitalized for liver failure at 30 years old, and the long road that followed after trying to moderate, becoming “Cali sober,” and eventually realizing she needed to become fully substance-free.

In this episode, we discuss:

What it’s like trying to quit drinking while working in the restaurant industry
Why “special occasion drinking” slowly pulled Adriana back into alcohol
The hidden struggles of being “Cali sober”
Why weed became another form of escapism
How boredom and stillness can actually become peaceful in sobriety
The importance of sober community and support
Why recovery doesn’t have to look perfect or extreme
How both Sara and Adriana learned to finally feel comfortable in their own skin

This episode is honest, emotional, funny, and incredibly relatable for anyone questioning their relationship with alcohol, weed, or escapism in general.
