Transcripts
-:
Hello, darling heart, and welcome 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 and 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.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. Pretty goals.
-:
Well, hello you beauty of a round number, podcast episode 100. That is wild.
-:
Seriously, 100 whole episodes, nearly 2 years worth of recordings.
-:
Now I think about it, I didn't ever set a goal or intention with this platform.
-:
I knew I preferred to speak rather than write, and although I tell you all day long that I prefer audio over video, I seem
-:
to find myself on screen recordings more and more often at the moment.
-:
I guess different audiences find me in different places, the places where they hang out most. So, 100.
-:
What can I tell you this many episodes in? It's still not perfect.
-:
I'll forget to plug in my microphone, I'll record 2 or 3 in one go, or none for a few weeks.
-:
I'm massively inspired or a little bit underwhelmed.
-:
I think the podcast serves an amazing purpose like no other, and I also get comparison it is and think it's not perfect enough.
-:
I'm not I've not yet run out of subjects to talk about.
-:
My favourite episode is still number 27.
-:
It's a firm favorite, the liminal space.
-:
It's as relevant now as when I recorded it in 2021, and it's an idea I come back to often.
-:
I am endlessly delighted to see my listener statistics and analytics.
-:
Tens of thousands of us together drinking less, living better, or getting ready to do so.
-:
Who are my beauties listening in Andorra, Morocco and the Philippines? Thank you.
-:
I love looking at my world map and thinking of you in those far flung places.
-:
Tell me you knew about the hidden episode?
-:
Check out the show notes, there's a link there and you'll get the secret episode delivered straight to you.
-:
It's a much downloaded and listened to bit of magic.
-:
I love love love it when you get in touch with me.
-:
I love it when you let me know what's helped and what you would like more of.
-:
Coming up over the next couple of months, there's going to be some more episodes about our emotional and spiritual well-being,
-:
some thoughts about the many pathways we can take to recovery, stretching our comfort zones, some more poems and more episodes
-:
on things you'll never hear me say.
-:
There's going to be some more on mindset, values, balancing our commitments to ourselves and others, and more about love, compassion, and courage.
-:
So far in 2023, I've had 2 sets of surgery, and I've got some further treatment to come.
-:
I felt incredibly well through all of it, and I'm making some of that up to sobriety.
-:
I'd be doing you all a disservice if I pretended everything was amazing every second of of my life, but, energetically, I know that I am well. I am okay.
-:
I am doing the best I can with what resources I have available. We all are.
-:
I'm feeling physically good, emotionally prepared, and well for everything this year is bringing.
-:
The work I'm engaging with with my one to one clients at the moment is focused and challenging. It's fuelled by kindness and compassion.
-:
Comfort zones are being gently stretched, resources suggested, and trust and belief are central to the work that we do together. Mhmm. Where was I? Ah, yes. Around number 100 episodes in. That's right.
-:
I should imagine there'll be other celebration points this year as well.
-:
There'll be 2 years worth at at some point.
-:
This year I'm featuring on various well-being stages, platforms and festivals, so if there's an opportunity to record and
-:
share the audio from those events then I will do so.
-:
If you want to know where you can catch me this summer and beyond, be sure to join my email list.
-:
You'll be amongst the first to know when tickets go on sale for these events. Thanks so much for listening today.
-:
Please know that if you don't quite believe in yourself yet, I believe in you and your capacity to change.
