Ep. 27 Creating a Joyful, Alcohol-Free Life with Sarah Rusbatch

Sara and Heather get to talk with guest Sarah Rusbatch, Sarah is the author of the best selling book “Beyond Booze, How to create a life you love Alcohol Free’, a multi-award winning Health and Wellbeing Coach, an accredited Grey Area Drinking Coach, a menopause coach and a Key-Note speaker sharing her journey to Sobriety and impact of alcohol on mental health to global audiences. Sarah works tirelessly to support women all over the world to create and live their best lives as they age.

Sarah shares her personal journey from starting to drink at 14 in England to becoming a heavy drinker in her adult life and how moving to Australia with two young children led her to use alcohol to cope with loneliness, boredom, and stress. After numerous attempts, Sarah fully embraced sobriety in 2019, retrained as a coach, and wrote 'Beyond Booze: How to Create a Life You Love, Alcohol-Free.' The book, aimed at midlife women, focuses not on sobriety for its own sake but on building a fulfilling life without alcohol. Sarah's story struck a chord with thousands of women, leading her to support others in navigating midlife without alcohol. The episode also addresses the challenges of menopause and alcohol, societal pressures, and the importance of self-advocacy in healthcare.
