This week's podcast guest, Lea Watson, is known mostly for her Instagram account @glowsober where she is the queen of alcohol-free drinks and quit-lit reviews. But her reasons for going alcohol-free are much deeper than a healthy lifestyle choice. Lea talks candidly about the tragedy that made her turn to drink and the power she found in taking back control of her alcohol issues, and her life.'It feels like when I tell my story, it feels like a long line of quite tragic events. And they are. But they're also they are also about the power bit ... because actually, the decision was, I either stop drinking, or I go and actually jump off a bridge because there was no in-between. Alcohol could not make me function in a way that made me have the life that I wanted to live. And it turned out that I wanted to design the life that I wanted. I didn't want it to control me anymore.'Our podcast is available on all your favourite podcasting platforms, like Apple, Google and Spotify.
