Today I’m chatting to Hannah from the Sober Butterfly Collective…

In this episode:-

Hannah began drinking as a teenager and it ramped us during her career in hospitality,
She began to depend on alcohol as her coping mechanism.
Her turning point came during a hen party in Barcelona, where she had a panic attack which prompted her to reconsider her relationship with alcohol so
Hannah attempted "Sober October" in 2019, using it as a time to reflect on her life goals – she realised that alcohol was preventing her from achieving these goals
We often talk about this at Tribe Sober – the fact that even if we are relatively functional as drinkers alcohol will prevent us from reaching out true potential
Hannah remained alcohol free after October, navigating social situations and realizing that the confidence she was gaining was internal rather than alcohol-induced.
Benefits of Sobriety for Hannah have been gaining time, money and creating more meaningful friendships.
A Tip from Hannah is to create a "self-care menu" to track activities that refresh and bring joy
She also suggests connecting with sober communities, exploring resources like podcasts and books, and getting curious about a life without alcohol.
Hannah started the Sober Butterfly Collective to help others find alcohol-free connections and friendships, offering monthly coffee meetups and diverse social activities across the UK.
